"Banish uncertainty.
Affirm strength.
Hold resolve.
Expect death."
Amidst the shame and toil of this world, it's all to easy to vacillate and, ultimately, surrender. People remind me that we were all created, each of us, for a special purpose, but I struggle to maintain that in my sights as I go forth into the cares of each day, the terror of the unknown. People are also fond of saying, "Everything happens for a reason," but whether or not that's the case, the idea that all of our struggles are a part of something greater is not to be ignored. As to the purpose of that greater thing, as my mother is fond of saying, "In time, all will be revealed." For now, the will to keep moving forward is everything.
