“It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.” E.E. Cummings *************************************************************** The Story of my Life A stalwart pine tree battered by vile men And shattered by the heartless hands of fate I still stand shining, scanning the firm land In life`s late hours and, though in feeble state, With valour I bear on myself my weight.

Love the quote and the poem! Bearing your own burdens is noble but we all need a hand every now and then. I'm so glad to see your still standing after all. Xoxo

Though others may try to defeat us, we can stand on our own feet and steady ourselves, if we have the will and courage. I enjoyed the comparison of the pine tree shattered by adverse winds, but still standing firm on ground to your own life. Beautiful six liner! All the best dear Krishnanand.
