Mr. Altig’s Overview of the Wonderful Dharma of the Lotus Sutra

In the depths of adversity, I have found my inner flame,
A reservoir of resilience that burns with unwavering aim.
Challenges may test me, but I stand tall and strong,
For I carry within me a strength that will carry me along.

In moments of hardship, I’ve called upon my courage,
A flame that flickers within, refusing to discourage.
I’ve faced obstacles and setbacks, but never lost sight,
For within me lies a tenacity that shines through the night.

I draw upon my determination, a wellspring of power,
A force that propels me forward, hour after hour.
With each challenge I encounter, I rise to the occasion,
Tapping into my resilience with unwavering dedication.

I’ve learned to embrace adaptability, to bend without breaking,
In the face of adversity, I find strength in my own making.
Life’s unpredictable storms may shake me to the core,
But I stand firm, knowing I can weather them and more.

The support of loved ones has been a guiding light,
Their unwavering presence in my darkest night.
Their belief in my abilities, their words of encouragement,
Have fueled my resilience, empowering my ascent.

I’ve nurtured my mindset, cultivating a positive outlook,
Finding silver linings even when the path is crook.
I focus on solutions, embracing a growth mentality,
Harnessing the power of optimism, transforming reality.

Self-care has become my sanctuary, a wellspring of rejuvenation,
Nurturing my body and mind, a vital act of preservation.
Through rest, nourishment, and mindful self-compassion,
I restore my strength, forging a resilient foundation.

In moments of doubt, I turn inward, seeking inner wisdom,
Tapping into my intuition, embracing the light within.
I trust in my abilities, in the resilience I possess,
Knowing that within me lies an unwavering fortress.

Every challenge I have overcome, every mountain I have climbed,
Has shaped me into the person I am, strong and unconfined.
I celebrate my resilience, my unwavering spirit,
For it is a beacon of strength that I will always inherit.

As I reflect on my journey through adversity and strife,
I honor the resilience that has been woven into my life.
In future challenges, I will draw upon this inner might,
For I am resilient, and I will continue to shine bright.
