"Underrated"

"Underrated"
By: Brendan Cadman 

Rock bottom is underrated. 
There is no where to go but up.

Pain is underrated. 
It only makes you stronger. 

Disappointment is underrated. 
It makes satisfaction even greater. 

Rejection is underrated. 
It makes acceptance even sweeter. 

Heartbreak is underrated. 
It only makes you love deeper. 

Sickness is underrated. 
It makes you appreciate your health. 

Failure is underrated. 
It makes success more satisfying.

Struggling is underrated. 
It makes easy times even more enjoyable. 

Grief is underrated. 
It makes happiness more joyful. 

Death is underrated. 
It makes life more valuable. 

Everything in life serves a purpose and has a deeper meaning.
Sometimes we can't always see the meaning in that moment
but it doesn't mean it's not there. 

Count your blessings and enjoy everything good in your life.
However, never discredit the bad things or hardships.
They are underrated.

Euphoria and bliss shower over me like summer rain, but the distant rumble of thunder and blinding streaks in the sky, bring with it the cover of ominous black clouds, until the momentary and empty feelings of joy transform into pain. The last time and never again is the oath that I make, as the black clouds give way to golden rays bursting from the sun, but the chill in the air raises the hair on my neck, as a storm swells on the distant horizon until suddenly I'm b...
