Courage

Give us the courage,

to face what that may occur,

what that may not occur.

To face it when things happen,

to accept it when things don't turn out the way i hoped.

Courage to accept the truth,

the untruths,

the lies,

the reality,

To accept things the way they are,

and ways they aren't.

And most importantly,

accept people the way they are,

accept them for who they are,

be it good or bad.

Embrace life the way it presents itself to me.

The good, the bad,

Courage to embrace them all.
