The Code and the Heart

Before your fingers touch the keyboard's keys,
Before the syntax dances, a digital breeze,
Ask yourself, dear developer, bold and bright,
What ignited your spark, what set your spirit alight?

For code is but a tool, a language to wield,
But the heart of the matter in people revealed.
It's not just lines of logic, cold and bare,
But solving their problems, a burden you share.

Empathy whispers, a guiding light,
To understand their struggles, to see their plight.
To bridge the gap between needs and desires,
With solutions crafted, fueling their fires.

Love for people, not just code's embrace,
Is the fuel that ignites, the starting race.
Problem-solving, a warrior's art,
To conquer challenges, set their minds apart.

Why do you code? Let the answer unfold,
Like a warrior's purpose, bold and bold.
Not just for pay, not just for the fame,
But for a cause, a reason, etched in your name.

Don't let the hours dictate your worth,
For efficiency matters, not just length of birth.
Balance your life, let your spirit soar,
Work smarter, not harder, explore and explore.

If the code feels heavy, the path unclear,
Seek guidance and wisdom, cast aside your fear.
For sometimes, a different path is the key,
To unlock your potential, set your spirit free.

There's no shame in changing course, in finding your stride,
For life is a journey, with many doors to ride.
So embrace the unknown, the twists and the turns,
And discover your purpose, where passion burns.
