A Gatekeeper

A simple gate keeps others out.
The design of a gate is simple and made of iron
IT is different from a wall since there is a point of entry.
There are many ways to enter through force or persuasion.
But before the choice is made the gatekeeper looms toward the gate.
This omnipotent force if you can persuade will grant you access to a different realm.
Yet this force has heard it all.
The resistance is high but there must a way to turn the tide.
Maybe a simple talk and kindness has it magic to it.
However this tale does not end well and still nothing moves him.
As the challenges ends the gatekeeper bellows to try again.

Maturity and time to explore other places to understand what you need.
Failure and the ability to rise from defeat may turn out to be valuable.
Provide your own validation and embrace the challenge of your own growth.
Only then will you be welcomed.

So maybe with the potential of time and new ordeals will be the difference.
