My Favourite Barack Obama Quotes

Purpose

“If you’re walking down the right path and you’re willing to keep walking, eventually you’ll make progress.”


Potential

“Focusing your life solely on making a buck shows a certain poverty of ambition. It asks too little of yourself. Because it’s only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you realize your true potential.”

-Barack Obama

Finding Strength in Life

Many Times, Life throws you from side to sides
You don't know which side to turn and it seems that life is meaningless
And that you should get some pills to swallow and end it all
Have you not felt that way sometimes?
In the midst of trouble
Only then, we need to stop and think
Life is not all rosy
But in the midst of darkness, we can appreciate lights
I believe that if we have courage, and faith and if we paddle through with determination
we can embrace the light and become one with it
And the darkness will be overcome
We are all God's children
Our heavenly father cares, even in the midst of trouble
