Hard Times
Today, this very day, we face some very hard times. And it seems as though things are getting harder. I know that I’ve seen better days, and I may have even seen some worse. But there is something inside me that gives me great determination to keep pressing forward. I can’t explain it, but it was forged in the heat of going through much adversity.
It’s something that I can’t release and it won’t let me go. These hard times won’t last. I refuse to believe that they will. I refuse to give up. I refuse to give in. No matter who’s with me or not, no matter who stays with me and who leaves. These hard times are only making me dig deeper within myself and solidify my standing.
For I know that I am not what hard times have befallen me, but that hard times have come to make me better and draw out of me even more determination. I keep pressing forward until I see the manifestation of what is already alive within me. I press towards a higher mark that has a great reward.
