Sometimes your best isn't enough
And happiness comes after sorrow 
Life isn't always going to be rough
Yet, I can't speak for tomorrow
Love doesn't come for free 
And hard work is sometimes fatal 
Forgiveness isn't always easy 
And wars can be mental 
We know living can be stressful
And it's hard to see the blessings
In all things, try to be thankful 
And try and find a silver lining
When pain is persistent 
And the hurt seems too heavy 
Remember you are resilient 
And this is temporary
