THATS LIFE

My life always seems to be 
In the center of a crisis 
If it en't one thing its another.
You would think I should be good 
At dealing with crises by now 
Having to navigate through all 
The ups and downs of every day struggles
Day after day.
But for some reason 
I keep failing tremendously 
At the simplest of these trials 
Becoming down and depressed 
More often than ever.
I've heard it said 
That trials come to make you stronger 
But I am terrified at the cloud of a crisis 
And in the midst of it
My spirit is paralyzed.
Nevertheless when I am able 
To overcome the least of these 
And breathing becomes normal again 
My sail catches a little wind
And my battered beaten life 
Finds its way into another crisis again.
By 
Wilford Barker.

Hi wilford.  I hear you on this write loud and clear.  I think we have all had struggles with crisis's and hurt and pain . You just have to plow through them like a dreary raining day. I have my days when they are not very good but you always have God to lean and that is how it should be . God kept me sane through my divorce and separation and believe you me it still is a big aggravation.  Great write. Hrl
