When we are walking… and we’re stepping on a spiky ground, Walk lightly without looking down or turning around; Ahead of us always awaits the finest sand where we can lay down and laze in the sun. When we are climbing… and we’re going to climb a scree, Dodge those stones that roll down on us freely; And if we feel disdain and in vain, remember that we’re unique, with special knacks and strength. When we’re swimming… and we’re swimming on distraught of morass counts, keep dancing the minuet of life in mellow sounds; When sable clouds and torrents of rain teem down too, swim at our best stoke, on those clouds we’ll always float and glow. When we are loving… and we’re loving too much from the heart, It hurts, but Cupid also heals wound with his magic dart; Keep on loving others, never stifle and give up Love is a berth of comfort, a precious gift, a great reward. When we are standing… and we’re lashed by cataclysm that mangled our heart, Cling to the Lord, He will restore everything from the start; He will reshape whatever was deformed And make us stand straight, a forever cypress amidst the storm.

Hello Leonora, I really emphasize with the message in this one, I takes some awareness, to continue on in the Lord, yet there is really no other way, although the world tries to blind us; if we search with our all and apply the Love of God, all will be resolved..'
