On Being A Champion
A champion is a winner.
A hero....

Someone who never gives up
Even when the going gets rough.
A champion is a member of
A winning team...

Someone who overcomes challenges
Even when it requires creative solutions.
A champion is an optimist.
A hopeful spirit...

Someone who plays the game,
Even when the game is called life...

Especially when the game is called life.
There can be a champion in each of us,
If we live as a winner,
If we live as a member of the team,
If we live with a hopeful spirit.
For life.
