| Choosing to Survive There are times when one may be left to survive the repercussions of the
    behaviors of another.   Behaviors which one in no way anticipated. . . nor
    encouraged.   Robbed of one's past, . . . present . . . and  future, the
    soul forfeits the dreams, . . .the aspirations . . . and the ambitions that had previously
    sustained it's existence.   Choosing to survive demands one learn to bear an
    insufferable grief, . . .bringing a stoicism . . . enabling one to endure. ~Unknown ~ |
