These words by Lamyaa inspires one to hang in there against all odds. It is easy to quit, to give up. It takes courage and strength to pursue and never lose hope. “Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up”. — Thomas A. Edison. So, hang in there. Try one more time. There’s always an answer.

Beautiful lines by Lamya Hanchaoui

Don’t give up; Don’t give in ‪@elatrasiatelier‬
There’s always an answer to everything
This my friend is for you
The trials that you face
And the dreams that you chase
You’re behind in your race
And you’re straying from your pace
Your mind is scattered all over the place
And you’re desperate for space
Little did he know this is your time to embrace
Don’t give up, Don’t give in
There’s always an answer to everything
You know we tend to hide what’s inside
And waste time on what could have been
Yet, isn’t the key to believe in our own identity?
Your past brought you here
This is where it all begins
Don’t give up, Don’t give in
There’s always an answer to everything
So don’t sit hour after hour
While your tribulations tower
Don’t forget the countless blessings
Every rich that you have been showered
Find your strengths and your powers
To rise above the cowards
Be like the flowers
That gives off its scent
When it’s crushed and devoured
Don’t give up, Don’t give in
There’s always an answer to everything
And I found myself running from calamity
Insanity to sanity
This is a reality
That we forget
Who created us and moulded us,
And made us human beings
With the details and fashion of DNA & genes
Who gave us a mind to judge our own actions,
And routines by all means
Don’t give up, Don’t give in
There’s always an answer to everything
And yes, life can be quite a mystery
And the key to success doesn’t come free
And if you believe that this is all decreed
Then, what will be, will be.
But I guess not everything that we wish for
Is always guaranteed,
But your efforts won’t be fruitless
Don’t ever think you are useless
We all serve a purpose
So, please don’t feel hopeless
Don’t give up, Don’t give in
There’s always an answer to everything
And no, you’re not just another number
To be disposed off after
You’re mother father sister
Brother friend and a lover
To be true to yourself is worth the struggle
Although the critics make you suffer
Trees lose their leaves
Only to blossom by the summer
Don’t give up, Don’t give in
There’s always an answer to everything
So, repel negativity
With positivity
And watch life bring every single possibility
And have an attitude
For gratitude
And if you want to be happy
That’s exactly what we’re meant to do
Don’t give up, Don’t give in
There’s always an answer to everything
