   Reminded me of A Prayer by Clarissa Pinkola Estes:

   Refuse to fall down
   If you cannot refuse to fall down,
   refuse to stay down.
   If you cannot refuse to stay down,
   lift your heart toward heaven,
   and like a hungry beggar,
   ask that it be filled.
   You may be pushed down.
   You may be kept from rising.
   But no one can keep you from lifting your heart
   toward heaven
   only you.
   It is in the middle of misery
   that so much becomes clear.
   The one who says nothing good
   came of this
   is not yet listening.
