" When the light has sharply faded
And you have lost your way
Let another's love guide you
It can turn blackest night into day."
--- Kevin Meyers
" It is the darkest hour before dawn."
--- Sent by Jody C. Burnett --- California
ALWAYS HAVE FAITH IN YOURSELF
" It is not easy to live life sometimes
And face the world with a smile when you're crying inside.
It takes a lot of courage to reach down inside yourself,
Hold on to that strength that's still there,
And know that tomorrow is a new day-with new possibilities.
But if you can just hold on long enough to see this through,
You'll come out a new person-stronger,
With more understanding and with a new pride in yourself
From knowing you made it."

" The bigger the obstacle in my way, the bigger and more stable a stepping stone I have to reach my goals."
Written in 2011 by Mike Woodcroft --- United Kingdom
"Avoid problems, and you'll never be the one who overcame them."
--- Richard Bach
" Stumbling blocks, disappointment, trials are all steppingstones to greater joy than you've ever known. For pains that cause the heart to ache become the strength by which we climb to higher heights. And feel the radiance of God's smiles, when we have soared above life's trials. God didn't promise days without struggle, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way. If God brings you to it, He will help you through it. Don't let setbacks make you give up in life. God will never leave you or forsake you. He will make a way when all hope is lost. If you put your trust in God he will turn your sorrow to joy and your darkness to light."

"The challenges or the problems you face in life, some of them take time to be sorted. And like a seed that you planted, they need to be taken care of. Before you see the result or the fruits of your plant, the seed needs to die or perish and grow into the ground before it comes out of the ground. When you don't see anything, you give up and it’s then when things are being sorted. After you take care of your problems, you need to make sure that you don't go down that road again. When the plant is out of the ground, you need to take care of it, meaning you need to cover your plant, pour some water for it to grow, protect it from the insects and birds or it will die and you will have to start again. That is why they say patience is the mother of success."
