The Power of Being You! - Stand Strong and Be You

Dieses Gedicht möchte den Mythos der angeborenen Größe jener infrage stellen, die zu Ruhm und Ansehen gelangen. Es erinnert uns daran, dass Erfolg oft aus Glück, Einfluss oder Angst resultiert – nicht aus Brillanz oder Charisma. Es ermutigt hoffentlich die Leser, ihre Einzigartigkeit zu schätzen, Zweifel zum Schweigen zu bringen und ihren eigenen Weg mit Entschlossenheit und Stolz zu verfolgen.



Do you feel small, unseen, unheard?
Does the world seem tilted, its justice absurd?
Remember this truth, let it sink in well:
Not all who rise do so by merit they sell.

Professionals built the Titanic with pride,
But an untrained hand made the Ark as a guide.
Success isn’t always from skill or from charm,
Often it’s fortune that spares us from harm.

The ones who seem mighty, who set the tone,
Are often not special, nor strong on their own.
It’s power and fear, not their glowing worth,
That give them the place they claim on this earth.

Your value is yours, it cannot compare
To what others think or to what they declare.
Find what you love, what ignites your soul,
And give it your all—make your passion your goal.

The crowd is a throng, their numbers vast,
But you’re one of a kind, you outshine their cast.
Be bold, be steady, hold to your way,
The rest already exist; you’re not their replay.

Unique and strong, your truth is clear,
The voice of the doubters, let it disappear.
You are yourself—that’s your greatest art.
Forge ahead with courage, and follow your heart.
