The Meaning We Make - inspired by Victor Frankl

In the shadow of suffering, a light still burns

Not of ease, but of meaning, the kind that returns

When we ask not “Why me?” but “What now can I do?”

To honour the pain, and still walk through.

He taught that freedom lives in our stance,

Not in fate, but in how we dance

With loss, with fear, with days gone wrong

And find in the silence a purpose strong.

Not pleasure, not power, but meaning is key

A reason to rise, a reason to be.

Even in chains, the soul may sing,

If it finds its why in the suffering.

So when life feels heavy, or hope runs thin,

Remember: the choice is still within.

To shape your story, to bear your part

With dignity, courage, and an open heart
