Sheer Persistence

When things are somehow going wrong And get you in a funk, It helps to try to lift those spirits That have sadly sunk. Resorting to plan B or C May boost your sagging state And going for a walk or ride May more than compensate. But trying different avenues To fix a major plight May prove that sheer persistence Can make everything all right.

Hope you’re not seeking plan B or C, Ilene. The human spirit is a thing to be reckoned with…. At least until we get to plan Z… but then there’s hexadecimal… A smashing piece of positivity. Terry
