Endurance

We must now endure, The storm did rage, Fear on every face. Can this be real? Some denying still. We are caged, In this sheltered place. But we survived, The brave saved our lives. Learn now, " We must endure "

This reads as if it has been written from personal experience -- but endure what? I wonder... My best regards. :) john P.s Sounds as if you were involved in armed combat.

Weii to some extent true. Tho primarily written for hurricane survivors. Americans are woefully unprepared for tragedy. Survival is an instinct. Endurance is a character quality, that must be cultivated, but first one has to have planted the seed.
