Hang Tough! ....[ Life; Adversity; Encouragement; Acceptance; Bri's Note To A Friend ]



Hang tough, though obstacles may seem rough.
I think you're up to the challenges, 'up to snuff'**.

Ok! Maybe you're better, yes, than 'up to snuff',
so charge ahead in life. You're no 'powder puff'***.

BUT........

Life has no 'guarantee' that things will ALL go well,
so don't be surprised that some things 'go to hell'! !


bri ;)


** up to snuff: 'as good as is required; meeting the minimum requirements'

*** I think I've made up a new definition for 'powder puff': 'a pushover'*****

***** OK! It seems the computer and I can not agree. By 'pushover' I mean something/someone which/who is easily defeated/thwarted

AND: 'go to hell'? I KNOW I've heard that before, used figuratively
and literally. ;) Here I mean ' to become completely ruined: to fail completely'

I really enjoyed your new poem Bri. Considering the world we live in now, it's great advice. I don't want to be a powder puff. : )

You're a 'peach' (a sweet one) , from the 'Beach'. As for being a 'powder puff', 'as you are' is (for me) enough! ;) bri

Bri's advice should be taken with a grain of salt, but there's really nothing here that I can fault...
