The Bridge From Despair

The Bridge From Despair

All lives are exposed to pain and sorrow;
and endless trials, so difficult to bear;

The Goal Of Life

The Goal Of Life

What is the main goal in your life;
what you’re most motivated to do;

their success means everything to you;
and, if

The Greatest Love

The Greatest Love

Many a challenge, occurs in each life;
