We learn to take the good with the bad. What other choice do we have? Do we mope or we grit our teeth and get going?  Do we give up or do we look for the silver lining? Heck, storm clouds do wash away. It’s been a long and trying week and it’s not letting up any time soon. But things do get better because we grow up being shown there’s colours amidst the grey. And let’s not forget, we salute our mothers this 12th May. They are the ones who show us we can scrape our knees but still go running cause it’s worth it. So ride through the doom and gloom. Stay calm, this too shall pass.
