We all have our mountains to climb
We all have our fears to face
We all have to learn to handle life’s challenges
With at least a modicum of grace
How many of us rant and rave
Or completely go berserk
When things do not go exactly our way
How many of us just turn into jerks?
It’s hard to keep our emotions in check
Especially around those we cherish
But if we fly off the handle when challenges arise
Our most precious relationships could perish
So, take a moment and take a deep breath
And think about your situation
Face it with a sense of dignity and calm
Control your anger and frustration
Face your mountains with love - not anger
Invite others in to lend a hand
Before long that mountain will begin to crumble
And in its place a victorious you will stand
