INVICTUS by William Ernest Henley

I'am the Captain of My Soul!!!!! But still GOD is the Director of my Life!!!!!!!!

In this past few weeks and until now we encounter lots of literary work, liked poem, of all the poem we've read and discuss "INVICTUS" by William Ernest Henley is my favorite.

My Interpretation!!!!

On the first stanza of Invictus, as I understand while I'm reading this it tells how sorrowful and sadness of a life, but despite of this we should be grateful and thankful to our God and we we don't have any rights to question Him for giving us a problem because He want us to become a strong person.

While on the second stanza it tells that circumstance in our life may bring tears to us because of our destiny but even though were having a hard situation we should still to stand straight and be strong.

Then on the third stanza even we are suffering and we feel the sadness in our life we should not be afraid to face our problems.

Lastly, it is not matter for us for whatever punishment maybe given to us the important is we are the one who makes our own decision and we are the who makes our destiny.

My Reaction!!!

This poem I like most, serves to me as an inspiration to stand on my own decision and makes my destiny because no one can ever make my destiny as I could.

It also makes me realized that I should not ask God for giving me such problem that I think I can't able to solve, but not now because I do believe He give that problem to me because God know that I can get through with it.
