Sometimes, stress can really get to you, especially around the holidays. Here's a little something I wrote when I was 11, and it's kept me going through some tough times:

“When life becomes too hard,
And truths must be faced,
Let not your good points,
Become things of disgrace.
Let your strengths be your foothold,
Your weaknesses of the past,
And let the firm hope that you hold,
Last, and last, and last.”

Hope everyone has a great Monday!
