Together, personal passion, purpose and persistence will make this recipe unique.
Toss in a pinch of gingered hope, some love and a hint of fresh faith,
Pour in two pints of focus and a quart of determination according to taste.
You need to add a pound of courage, a cup of forgiveness, maybe two,
Shake in a gallon of spirit, a bit of soul seasoning ads gusto to this wonderful life stew.
Simmer all of the ingredients and be sure not to boil,

Everything first begins as a vision, a quest; a precious dream.

Let it guide, empower and nourish, all that you do.
