This Too Will Pass...

This too will pass...Dark days will appear, but we must hold on;
     We will shed tears, but know, we are never alone.

This too will pass...Tribulations may occur, but it is not the end;
     Happiness 24/7 is what we all prefer, but know, hearts don't break, they bend!

This too will pass...Sometimes through our fears, mistakes will be made.
     When a window of opportunity appears, don't pull down the shade!

This too will pass...You may not have a plan, but when you do, follow through;
     Because every man is guilty of all the good he didn't do!

This too will pass...There will be emotional ails, but believe me you will not die;
     Don't be afraid to fail, be afraid to try!
