IF YOU LOOK WITH LOVE

All that is suffered is to test you,
Raise resilience, and make you strong,
For the bird that flies into the wind,
To its maker will always belong.
We may well bend under our burdens,
We may suffer great anguish and pain,
But these trials will manifest hope,
That with faith we will always retain.
One must accept the results of one’s trauma,
In order to face the problems to solve,
And not fight the demons within us,
For if we do they will never dissolve.
If you look with love at the mirror,
A miracle in you will evolve.
