It takes strength to be firm,
It takes courage to be gentle.

It takes strength to conquer,
It takes courage to surrender.

It takes strength to be certain,
It takes courage to have doubt.

It takes strength to fit in,
It takes courage to standout.

It takes strength to feel a friend's pain,
It takes courage to feel your own pain.

It takes strenght to endure abuse,
It takes courage to stop it.

It takes strenght to stand alone.
It takes courage to lean on another.

It takes strenght to love,
It takes courage to be loved.

It takes strenght to survive,
It takes courage to live.
