Cheers To You
**Disclaimer: It might be said that the person who has been hurt the most has the most to teach, or the most to give as in to make someone's life a little better. Of course, that person must be willing to do just that. And maybe it is time to tell the person who has been hurt the most that we need to hear from you, because the fact that you are still here means you have a story to share.
Cheers to you public servant who work for the struggling masses.
Your hard work and compassion keeps us going.
Cheers to you who have been a rape victim and rose.
Your survival story can help the next victim carry on and carry through.
Cheers to you who have been the outcast and soared.
Your experiences can comfort the next outcast who feels scared.
Cheers to you who have cried in your lonely bed at night.
You too have experiences that will help the next person in line.
Even if you don't think your candle is bright,
others need the light you shine out of your hell.
