Joy is Discovered
April 3, 2011
~
It has been my experience
And I’ve heard thousands whisper
Their deepest desperate hurts —
Light appears in the dark
I met love at the bottom
This is a strange paradox
Going down led me upward
A treasure found
Life’s pain is like a furnace
The soul is refined by fire
Hope is born in the process
Joy is discovered
Why do some understand
And other’s don’t seem to see
I think I have a clue
Please consider this
Choose to see that you are great
A joy to behold
