When Desire Learns to Speak Louder Than Doubt

For the longest time, I believed that courage was the absence of doubt.

Age has a way of correcting such misunderstandings.

Looking back, I cannot remember a single meaningful journey that began without doubt sitting quietly beside me. It was there when I started my first venture with more enthusiasm than resources. It was there when I walked away from familiar paths into unfamiliar opportunities. It was there when I stood before rooms full of people, expected to have answers while secretly wondering whether I was asking the right questions myself.

Doubt, I discovered, is not an intruder.

It is a permanent resident of the human condition.

Passion

If you crave it with all your might,
You’ll find a way, both day and night.
But if the fire burns low, subdued,
Excuses rise to shape your mood.

For passion carves the path ahead,
While doubt leaves dreams to rest instead.
So ask your heart, and let it choose—
Will you ignite, or will you lose?

Doubtful path

In doubt’s grip, we falter, lose our way,
Yet through uncertainty, we find our sway.
To doubt the journey, a stagnant plight,
For doubting one’s work, dims our light.

Embrace the path, with steadfast trust,
Each step forward, a triumph robust.
In doubt’s shadow, let courage bloom,
For doubt’s defeat, births greatness’ room.
