Through adversity comes character, Through pain comes growth When character meets growth, we exceed expectations. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Why? The eternal question, Are we here, are we not, is this the best I, or you, can be? To strive. To breathe. To love. To live. Triumphs and tragedies. Yet death awaits us all. Why then? The question should be. Should I strive, reach, attempt, even try? When deaths grasp is my only reward… For I am human. I am man. Although my time is limited, a blink in the cosmos eye, it is MINE, for however brief it may be. It is filled with memories, and dreams, of what was and is to be. It is daily action, striving to make TODAY better than all the yesterdays prior. I own this present; yesterday’s are mere memories, tomorrow’s yet fulfilled action.
