"Learn to accept adversity. No matter who you are, you are going to have some. But do not fear the winds of adversity. Remember, a kite rises against the wind, rather than with it!"
~ Elder Jacob De Jager
Today, let me, like the kite - climb higher and higher until I sour into the sunshine! And if I spend the whole day trapped in the house, just sitting near and window in a sunbeam, at least let me be cheerful about it.
So there, Adversity. I can hang on a long as you can. You may depress me, but I'm darned if you're going to beat me!
