Hope is "the Making of You"

--by sands, posted Nov 20, 2009

I've had a hard time for a few years now and try to write a little something most days. All the postings I have made are my writings, so thank you to those of you that have given me such positive feedback. Thank you for your kindness.

Here's another...penned a few minutes ago.......

Life is what it is

No matter what hardships face us…and face each and every one of us they do

Don’t be fooled that yours are harder than anyone else’s

For that’s what they believe too.

Instead feel the pain…allow yourself the tears….scream and cry…do what you have to do

But always keep a little bit of hope in your heart ….and as you begin to build your life again….that hope will be the making of you.
