One of the poems from my book, Pulse Points of a Woman's World. A poem I kept hanging over my computer the entire time I battled with bladder cancer and dealt with the loss of my husband.

*Let me love* *though love* *may go unrequited,* *An empty heart* *is much heavier* *than a stone.* *Let me have faith,* *though faith* *be often blighted,* *Without it* *we are not* *strong enough* *to walk alone.* *Let me laugh,* *even if it* *is bitter laughter* *Mocking my own* *carefully kept* *secret sorrow..* *Love,* *faith,* *and laughter…* *Armed* *with these* *three gifts,* *I need not fear* *tomorrow, nor, tomorrow.*

Wonderful writing, Sylvia. I can readily understand how re-reading it would help in your daily trials. I don't often admit it, but I gain much comfort at times by reading some of my own writing. I thank God for it, knowing it is given by Him.
