Thrust reversal

My dear,

In the midst of hatred

I found out that there was in me

An invincible love.

In the middle of tears

I found out that there was in me

An invincible smile.

In the middle of chaos

I found out that there was in me

An invincible tranquillity.

I finally understood

That in the middle of winter,

I found out that there was in me

An invincible summer.

And that makes me happy.

Because he says it doesn’t matter

How hard the world

Go against me,

There’s something stronger in me,

Something better

That immediately pushes me back.

(Albert Camus)
