Life Problems

Problems of my life seemed big enough,
I tried to overcome them one at a time 
The problems hurriedly started piling up,
I felt agitated over a period of time

It was by all odds a gruelling progression,
I had no other choice but to face them
Each problem taught me a new lesson,
Each problem scraped my coarse wisdom 

I learned a great deal from my problems,
Soon they started to diminish as I endured them
Now I welcome them with open arms,
They have taught me how to live with them
