My Bit Is Mine To Do

I was not reminded.
You didn’t emphasize it.
He didn’t sponsor me.
She didn’t support me.
Nobody cares about me.
It is not my fault.
Am I the only one?
I was not taught how to do it.
Just leave me alone.
It is too difficult…

The list of excuses for not doing my bit can be endless.
There is definitely so much to do at every given time that it may seem justifiable to leave important tasks undone but which is more important; to be tolerated or to be celebrated?
We can change our stories by simply doing what we must do.
It sounds better to hear that we succeeded despite the challenges.
Don’t join me to find an excuse that best suits you.
Don’t find someone else to put the blame on.
Don’t always think that you can do it tomorrow.
Do the bit you can to ensure that tomorrow’s tasks are not kept aside for today’s.
Don’t settle for less because you can find an acceptable excuse.
Even when others can’t, we can be the ones who can.
My bit is mine to do and I’ll do it.
If I happen to be the one that makes the required difference, I’ll feel good with myself.
Even when there’s no one to reward our efforts, the fact that we get fulfillment is enough compensation.
Don’t leave out your bit, just because you can.
Do what you must and feel good because you made things better for everyone else.
Once again; I’ll do my bit.
