"This above all, to thine own self be true." - William Shakespeare


I'm learning to rejoice:
Even though people get deathly sick. Even though people loses their jobs.
Even though people are homeless.
Even though I'm hurt inside.
Even though life isn't easy.

I'm learning to rejoice:
In things done wrong.
In mistakes made.
In words I can't take back.
In friendships estranged.
In lives ruined.
In tears shed.

Little by little, I'm learning to rejoice.

"It was then, more than ever before, that I think I began to understand what it means to trust God in times when we don’t know what on earth is going to happen."
