The Push To Endure

It's doubly challenging 
to put on a happy face,
let alone laugh 
through times
of hardship and pain...

So raise a glass with me
in praise 
to those intrepid ones 
who do it day in, day out. 

To those who push to endure
quotidian challenges, 
and push past life's hindrances
without asking...

"Why me?" 
Instead asking..."Why not me?"

Cheers to you all!

Thank you 
for being an inspiration!
