Morning Soup

No matter how many frowns infest your life
No matter how many tears dim your life
No matter how many failures, plunge you down further 
No matter how much hurt, wounds every inch of you
No matter how ugly your past & how foggy your present is, Be Thankful 


Inspired by the story of Dr Stellah Bosire-Otieno
