How Rare

How rare it is to live through pain

But still, see beauty

To still have hope

How rare it is to change perspective

Ushering light into a world of darkness

I once believed the burden of life too much to bear

I once believed my desitny was agony

I once believed things would never change

But-

How rare it is to undergo a metamorphosis

What an uncommon phenomenon

Now,

I rejoice over the gift to exist

I delight in the path I take

I behold transformation

Oh, how truly, rare it is

To be blessed with a new lease on life
