Purpose of Hardship
In the heart of darkness, where shadows loom
Where anxiety whispers and despair finds room
Challenges rise like mountains steep
And struggles run deep, oh so deep
Yet, in this crucible of pain
Lies the essence of what we gain
For hardship is not just a foe
But a teacher, helping us grow
When the weight of the world feels too much to bear
And every breath is a gasp for air
Remember, dear soul, in the midst of the night
The dawn will break, bringing new light
In moments of doubt, when courage wanes
And the soul is shackled by invisible chains
Know that within you lies a spark
A beacon of hope in the deepest dark
Through valleys of sorrow and peaks of fear
The journey is long, but the end is near
For every tear shed and every silent cry
Is a testament to the will to try
In the crucible of life's fierce embrace
We find our rhythm, we find our pace
The storms may rage, the winds may howl
But within us, a strength to disavow
When the night is darkest, and hope seems lost
Remember the lessons, remember the cost
For every struggle, every fight
Is a step towards the light
In the tapestry of life, woven with care
Each thread of hardship, each strand of despair
Adds depth and color, a story untold
Of a spirit unbroken, of a heart bold
So, embrace the struggle, the pain, the strife
For they are the sculptors of a meaningful life
In every challenge, a lesson to find
A testament to the strength of the mind
For in the end, when the journey is done
You'll look back and see what you've won
A heart that's stronger, a spirit that's free
A life that's richer, for all to see
