#39 - We must accept life for what it actually is - a challenge to our quality without which we should never know of what stuff we are made, or grow to our full stature. Robert Louis Stevenson

REROUTED

New challenges,
far removed the route we charted,
have the power to define us.
We either rise to the occasion
and stay the course,
or we crumble beneath
the whims and fancies of daily life.
Instead of wallowing in the
fear of uncertainty,
we are stronger when
we not only accept the detours,
but gracefully allow them to guide us
in a completely different direction.
