Glory


Glory. Glory is the word used little, for there is little. Glory is living your life for a higher purpose, not wasting it. Glory is being a Hero, and heroes are not born, but made from glory. Glory is the act of helping others for their gain. Not yours. Glory is taking a stand, and not hiding in the shadows. Glory is speaking the truth even when it puts you in danger, Glory is not fame, or fortune. Glory is not making yourself a name. Glory is sacrifice . To sacrifice your time, your money, or your life for others. Glory is not something that can be hung on a wall, or put into your pocket. No, Glory is what you act upon, something you silently spread to others. Because, true glory is a virtue. Glory is not something you can buy, but earned. Because we were born to go higher, so dare to dream bigger, because if you don't have a passion worth dying for, you have nothing worth living for. Glory is invisible to ones self, but shine bright to others who see you as a leader. It might be easy to lead your family, or your friends. But can you lead your enemies down the path of truth. For there is your challenge and I dare you to accept it. For that is true glory.
