A Quick Thought on Pain

At some point, we we will fall into a pit.
It'll be painful & we'll have a choice:
look around & stay in,
or look up & find a way out.
The devil will gladly help us stay in.
God will gladly help us get out.
But all the climbing, sweating & trying
in getting out of the pit
is more glorious, rewarding & wonderful
than resigning to staying in it.

2 mice fell in a bucket of cream.... even Christopher Walken couldn't sound this motivational in his famous speech from Catch Me if You Can!
But seriously. I agree. The devil will help us stay in. It seems like his biggest weapon is our apathy. Good word.
