Not the movie, the poem:
Out of the night that covers me, Black as the Pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.
- William Ernest Henley
We ARE the masters of our fate and the captains of our souls. Take heart. It will get better.

Thank you for sharing that InD.
I often turn to poetry to express the things I feel that seem to have no other way of being expressed.
Hope things are going better for you.
