LOOK FOR THE LIGHT:

LOOK FOR THE LIGHT:

All of us have experienced
Being in the "Dark Tunnel" of life.
In the depths of despair,
Through many troubles and strife.

In that "Dark Tunnel"
Is tenacity, acceptance, and hope.
If you look for the light,
You will be able to cope.

In all corners of the world
There are people worse off than us.
Look for the light
Without further ado and fuss.

I can personally relate to this,
Believe folk it's true.
With tenacity, acceptance and hope
That light will shine on you.

The end of that "Dark Tunnel"
Is a joy to behold.
When that light shines on you
Making you feel less alone and cold.

Taken from the book
Written From The Heart.

    What a sweet rendering. I have to laugh, though, considering my post title for the day.
    Oh Yvonne, keep me straight (smile).

    And it's always darkest right before the dawn. Look for that light, Yvonne - it's coming.

    Looking for the light is a lead not to lose hope. Light at the end of the tunnel so they say. Glad it pulled you through Yvonne! Great encouraging lines shared!
