Lightening The Load

Lightening The Load

Concerns weighed heavily on my mind

I used to find difficulty trying to unwind

My sleep was broken and I fret most days

It dawned on me I had to change my ways

Why worry so much you make yourself ill ?

Of cracking under pressure I'd had my fill

How did anything improve by falling apart ?

It was with this in mind I made a fresh start !

...........................................................

Finding an inner belief I didn't know I had

With new eyes, the world didn't look so bad 

Vigorously tackling issues as they came along

Each challenge overcome made me strong

I was determined to persevere until success

I attained a sense of freedom I still possess

Problems are no longer a mountain to climb

To be as I was seems a complete waste of time !

When you travel with lots of luggage or can travel well to enjoy the landscape, but the emotional it is even more negative, so what to do which tells us the poem by Waters, enjoy life and lighten the load. Greetings, I've loved composition, image, although it is very significant does not explain everything.
