Dont give up

In this life, you might stumble
As you try to battle
The never ending challenges
And the occasional bruises.......
That life throws at you

At times one wonders
And even ponders
If its all worth the bother
When you face another boulder.......
That life throws at you

Joy can often be fleeting
While pain is often lingering
But never go too far away
From places where love holds sway........
No matter what life throws at you

Always remain beware
Of those who embrace depair
Never give up
Ill-wind will definitely letup.........
No matter what life throws at you

Surround yourself with love
Like fingers in a glove
Distance yourself from hate
And all deadweight........
Dont give up......No matter what life throws at you !

  9. What a wonderful encouragement. The bible tells us that they that wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up on wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. Thanks, NIL!
