What Will You Do?

When you find yourself at the bottom of the ocean with no where to go but up, would you 
start swimming, or wait to be rescued? When you find yourself pushed onto the floor, would 
you get back up, or lay there defeated? It is only the weak who give up, but only the strong 
will survive. It is only the cowards who wish for the end of time, but only the brave will live 
there lives. In the darkest of days, there is still a light that guides your way. A light that 
guides you into a place of warmth and comfort that only you know. A light that guides you 
into the arms of someone who loves you, and suddenly you feel, “This is where I was meant 
to be. This is home.”
