What a lovely poem, grace truly is necessary to live; not merely exist in this world. It's an extension of kindness to oneself and to others, it is our means of endurance.

"What Grace means to me" by Scott Hughes delves into the personal interpretation of grace, emphasizing its multifaceted nature beyond mere religious connotations. While Hughes beautifully captures the essence of grace as encompassing forgiveness, kindness, and resilience, his exploration lacks depth in addressing the complexities and challenges of embodying grace in real-life situations. Additionally, his perspective predominantly revolves around individual experiences, overlooking broader societal implications and the role of grace in fostering empathy and understanding among diverse communities. Overall, while Hughes offers a poignant reflection on grace, a more nuanced analysis incorporating diverse perspectives could enrich the discourse on this profound concept.

An excellent poem for Grace. I believe all that was said about Grace. It sums up its meaning of dignity, elegance and courtesy for all of life.

A beautifully written poem. Poignant in parts and straight to the point in other parts. It resonated with me and the last two lines are a must read for others who feel there is nothing left in life. Read this, it will alter your perspective.

A very thought provoking piece. The line, "to be tough, but not painless" touches me. There are few people that can embody both in a genuine way.

Great philosophical poem. It strikes a balance that mirrors the balance we need in life.
