Courage..

Dark days seem to linger or is it just me who is so unwilling to open my eyes and see that things might not be so bad.

I do not think so. I have to admit and accept that I have encountered quite a lot over the past years but the mere fact that I am still here, does imply that I did survive.

People often say we should see the bright side of things but it is more easily said than done, especially when we are facing what might seem petty to others, but a real heartache for us. Afterall, we all have our own burden, notre propre croix à porter. 

No matter how hard it blows, no matter how many more obstacles are meant to be our way, we can only ask for courage to cope with them, even if we cannot always overcome them.
