Hi Tony
What a beautiful coincidence! that both of us should be writing on exactly the same topic. Very nicely expressed feeling in strength.

Thanks everyone for your funny or supportive comments, or even funny and
supportive. The key to success is to keep trying, keep at it, one step at a time. We managed it when we were babies learning to walk and talk, so let's keep up that progress. PS - Fourcats, I should have a flat chest, being a man but mine caves in slightly!

excellent tony! a great positive message about try, try again.

i have often made headway because of people's recognition of my attempts to succeed as opposed to my actual successes.  people want people who are willing to try, really, can you ask for anything more?  and because of that willingness to try repeatedly, i have in fact, experienced many successes in life, me, a 5'1", flat-chested, mousy brown-haired, plain looking tigress!  grrrrr!

destiny is a tuff thing to prove.hard to say why we seemingly are followed by cloud or sun shine but when they are there ,one does always ask why. good post

Tony
I have mixed feelings about whether or not we are the master of our destiny.  Some of it  I think is beyond our control but as you sonnet said, we can open doors and we can forge ahead with determination.  From that perspective alone, we can shape our destiny.  I really enjoyed today's sonnet, Tony.....
