Look For the Silver Lining.

Hardship
 the precursor of grief.
Tornadoes
Tsumanis
Earthquakes
Volcanic eruptions
the fuels of devastation
 to those who cringe.
Every hardship's
 a test of endurance
a challenge
 a stepping stone
to a higher level.
Take the bull by it's horns
strive
believe
be thankful for this test
then look past your troubles
to the silver lining beyond.
