Sonnet Xxiv Hold On

I know you’ve been hit
The Messenger of Misery 
He has done Evil
He’s done it against You
He’s done You much good.

He will bend you Hard
As if to break you, but No.
He will hit on you
Like Long-time Enemies

But the truth and fact remains
Neither God nor Nature is against You.
It is just the path of greatness.

To desire the beauty of success
Is to embrace the process thereto.

It is very important to know that the setbacks we experienced in life is not wickedness from the realm. It is of essence that in the actual course of life, we excel through the challenges we overcome. Hence, there is no victory if there be no challenge to conquer. We should not see challenges as troubles meant to keep us grounded. But as stepping stones to glory and greater glory.
