Groundwork of Me

When all I feel is sorrow, longing, or just pain
is when I feel uplifted, by the opportunity of change
The obstacles that we go through, and the suffering that we see
are the groundwork for the sight of the people we grow up to be
Beauty stems from ugliness, ugliness stems from pain
and pain stems from the sickness of the body or the brain
So when feeling unfulfilled, fragile or plain gaunt
is nothing but a chance to figure out what is it you want
So take all of your capacity, all of your strength and sagacity
to find your hope, your confidence, and your stern pertinacity
Because pain is nothing but a showing of life's true gift
of the chance to move in which ever direction, it is we choose to shift
