Promotion

It has been a practise within my establishment
To climb the ladder we need to anticipate for an opening and apply
I have been passing out on two openings in lack of self confidence
Despite my achievements and endless compliments i'm still in lack of guts to try

Eventhough i have been constantly encouraged by my peers and supervisor
Each time i have the intention to apply i ended up not doing so
Perhaps it is the devotion towards my company and team mates that i'm not prepared to endure
Perhaps i am just taking things too slow

Alvy is right , we're not young anymore
How am i suppose to pass the torch to the younger generation if its not lighted
I have to learn to stop hiding behind
I have to show the company that i am also interested
