Why
Suffer?...
Oriza
Martins
Why lament
the darkened
day,
if tomorrow
the sun will
return
glorious?
Why sadden
ourselves
with the
severity of
winter,
if spring is
coming soon
to cover the
nature with
colors and
loves?
Why live
remembering
ominous
souvenirs of
the past,
if the life
is to our
front and
it should be
enjoyed?
Why close
the heart to
future
relationships,
if we are
born to
love, to
love… and to
love?
Why insist
on the cold
solitude
and not
enjoy the
warm
presence of
someone?
Why
discourage
ourselves
because of
financial
difficulties
if we have a
great
potential to
face
challenges?
Why suffer
because of
problems of
health
and not to
use optimism
- the way to
win all
battles?
Finally…As
great Poets
say:
“I
cannot
choose how I
feel,
but I can
choose what
I do about
it.”
Or…
“Pain can be
inevitable,
but
Suffering is
optional.”
