Master of my fate

Master of my fate
.
.
.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

so endet das Gedicht Invictus des englischen Schriftstellers William Earnest Henley, der überreichliche Erfahrungen mit Schmerzen, Krankheit und Schicksalsschlägen hatte - und trotzdem ein herzlicher, lebensfroher Mann war. Es wird erzählt, dass Nelson Mandela dieses Gedicht liebt.

Really beautiful and I really enjoyed the jazz piano. That's a great poem with such a good message (and one I often forget.)

Belated HFF, FFF! :)
