Ketika seluruh dunia semakin suram
Dan semua tampak tidak begitu jelas,
Ketika bayang-bayang tampak mulai menggantung
Tuhan, tabahkanlah aku.
Ketika segalanya telah dicoba
Dan kelihatannya tidak ada jalan,
Buatlah aku tetap ingat
Kadang-kadang perjalanan memang lambat.
Aku mungkin hanya perlu berhenti dan beristirahat
Sepanjang lintasan yang kutempuh,
Saatnya untuk mencoba mengerti
Dan berbincang dengan Tuhan.
Setelah kudapat kekuatan baru untuk lanjut
Tanpa ragu atau takut,
Bagaimanapun aku tahu masalah akan beres,
Maka, tabahkanlah aku.
(Anna Stortz)

Puisi ini dikutip dari Chicken Soup for the Unsinkable Soul dengan judul yang jika diterjemahkan berarti "Ketabahan".
Puisi ini gw pilih karena walaupun singkat tetapi mengena banget buat keadaan gw sekarang...
Hope I'll do the best... =)
Ini versi aslinya:
When all the world is looming dark
And things seem not so clear,
When shadows seem to hover 'round
Lord, may I persevere.
When it seems everything's been tried
And there's no way to go,
Just let me keep remembering
Sometimes the journey's slow.
I may just need to stop and rest
Along the path I trod,
A time to try to understand
And have my talk with God.
As I gain new strength to carry on
Without a doubt or fear,
Somehow I know things will be right,
And so, I persevere.
And things seem not so clear,
When shadows seem to hover 'round
Lord, may I persevere.
When it seems everything's been tried
And there's no way to go,
Just let me keep remembering
Sometimes the journey's slow.
I may just need to stop and rest
Along the path I trod,
A time to try to understand
And have my talk with God.
As I gain new strength to carry on
Without a doubt or fear,
Somehow I know things will be right,
And so, I persevere.
+Lyrics of the day+
This is the life
It's harder than it looks
You never get enough
The time keeps flying
The life
You only get one shot
So give thanks for what you got
One love, ooh-whoah
Don't you worry
Hey we're gonna be alright
We're gonna be alright
Gonna be alright, yeah
(Hey, We're Gonna Be Alright by Jonas Brothers)
