1. Inner strength
Either I shall have to    Cry like a child
Or I shall have to
    Smile like a child.
These are the only ways
To constantly gain inner strength.
There are no other ways.
    When I cry like a child
    Or smile like a child,
Lo, inner strength becomes mine.
Sri Chinmoy, Silence-Seed and Sound-Fruit, Agni Press, New York, 1975
