tunes its harp and the crickets
celebrate life, I am like a troubadour

I understand I need courage
and sometimes, mysteriously,

At moments you're even invaded by a sense of triumph, and in the serenity accompanying that triumph nothing bothers you: neither the physical pain you'll have to face, nor the work you'll have to sacrifice, nor the freedom you'll have to give up. — Oriana Fallaci
