I'm a lighthouse that has weathered violent storms; A tree still unfelled by the blows of an axe. Despite blows by life's battering ram, I am ... quite adamantine. My faith is a chain that will never sever. My spirit, tantamount to a rubber band. Stretched, it returns to its original form. It's adamantine.
