Here is a poem that has touched me so much I got it memorized in one sitting. I recite it every chance I get, especially when I need it. Hope you like it.

If everything was easy

and nothing made us sad

If everything was easy

and nothing turned out bad

If heartaches never happened

and tears would never flow

We'd stay such little people

and never really grow.

If everything was easy

and fell into our hands

If everything was easy

and went just like we planned

We'd take it all for granted

and feel no greater gain

For strength comes when we suffer

and wisdom comes from pain.

If everything was easy

I'd be no good to you

For how could I look at your hurt

and say I'd been there, too?

I'd be a petty person

just an infant all my days

And I'd never thank my Savior

for the sunshine's golden rays
