Every day we encounter something new. sometimes it makes us happy. sometimes it makes us sad. sometimes we become mad. but in the midst of being angry let your love shine through. we never really know what someone else is going through at that time. they may be walking in their own darkness of the soul and are just venting. by letting love and compassion fill your heart you succeed in becoming a candle for others who are lost in their own darkness of the soul and your love lightens the darkness. let your love shine through and a single candle will light so many ways!
In the midst of hate, I found there was, within me, an invincible love.
In the midst of tears, I found there was, within me, an invincible smile.
In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm.
I realized, through it all, that…In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.
And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger,something better, pushing right back.
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.-William Ernest Henley
