Rock Bottom

So I deleted my last two posts. They just depressed me. Can't have that, now, can we?

I was just thinking... of Rudyard Kipling.

How many times can you hit rock-bottom
And have to build again from nothing
Before you lose yourself?

You'll never find out, because you'll never stop
Each time you fall, you'll rise up stronger
Life never deals you what you can't conquer

If I knew then, what I know now
and If I could, will I go back
and change what has passed?

But if I did, would I still be me?
There would be no lessons learnt
No opportunity to look back with mirth.
