or temporary brilliance,
but I've learned to take
one step at a time,
conquering through resilience.

for escaping a daily hell

Great POTD and a wonderful succinct piece on dealing with tough times that just become part of your day to day living and any glimpse of relief never taken for granted. Top stuff.
