Mrs. Ivee A. Santiago

I do not ask to walk smooth paths nor bear an easy load. I pray for strength and fortitude to climb the rock strewn road. Give me such courage and I can scale the hardest peaks alone, And transform every stumbling block into a stepping stone.I have a picture that sits on my desk at work. When the day gets long, or my clients get impatient, I remember to take a moment and look at the photo. It is a picture of my best friends taken years ago. It reminds me of the good times we have shared and the support that their friendship still gives me today.Even though our lives have gone in different directions, the bond we created has kept us close.
