Close your eyes.
Know that you are strong.
You are here on earth to be tested
and how you react to your challenges
is the true measure of a man.
You don't let obstacles crush you.
You deal with them as they come at you.
You are the captain of your life
and your ship is sailing through
turbulent seas these days.
Stay focused. Ride the storm.
Know that this too shall pass.
The sun is around the corner.
If not around the next bend,
it is definitely out there
beyond this squall
that cannot last forever.
And when the storm calms down
you'll take stock of the damage
and deal with it on the spot.
You'll make things better.
You'll make them right again.
Envision the life you want
and you'll find a way to get there.
You are captain of your journey
and the milestones along the way
are but the measure of a man.
