I knew I wanted to incorporate poetry somewhere in the site. After-all, It's one of my greatest passions. I created a video answering why I do what I do in poetry style using stock image overlays.
For being not an editor/ animator, I'm proud of how it came out! It lives on My Purpose page, but you can watch it here.

I work because I love it
By Laura Mai Gainor (She/Her)
What is it?
I’ll tell you now
It’s feeling lives are changing
It’s purpose that makes me proud
It’s that feeling in the morning
The feeling of determination
The feeling of excitement
To catch the train inside the station
It’s the thank yous for the jobs well done
It’s thrill of new ideas
It’s thinking without borders
It’s trying without fears.
It’s smiles laughs trust and respect
It’s being someone you can call
It’s learning from everyone I can
Because I’ll never know it all
It’s working to be better
It’s failing and getting up
I’ve learned that it’s effort
I don’t believe in luck
It’s making magic when you’re ready
It’s resting when you’re tired
It’s lifetime full of patience
But every day I feel inspired
It’s not always sunshine hearts and rainbows
But those days I savour too
I find beauty in the challenge
I find beauty in to do
It’s the search for opportunities
It’s the feeling for the drive
It fills me with excitement I do more than just survive
I work because I love it
Now you know the it for me
The it that keeps me going
What’s the it that helps you be?
