I can relate, seems like there is often something popping up that I need to overcome in that way. But it helps us get stronger and build character, right? :) Hope you do well with the poem!<br /><br />Have a great week,<br />KarenKaren Langehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18177923284595298347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797583622244194866.post-56159983650263372632012-07-07T20:06:57.911-07:002012-07-07T20:06:57.911-07:00I'd love to go to the Grand Canyon again.
