The twist, turns, joy and sadness
ups and downs, heartbreaks and breakthroughs
They call it life.
No one knows what tomorrow hold!
Joy or sadness, we do not know.
But we are advised to be ready for anything.
Ready or not life happens.
Would you allow life to knock you off your feet with disappointments
for the rest of your life?
or would you say, "enough" at a point and get up to make a decision.
A decision hard to make, yet there is no assurance of a softer tomorrow.
"No one knows how I feel," I scream these words all the time with pain
Who will make meaning of these words and understand my truest feelings.
I am told to live well, live life.
But know one has told me how to live well.
A voice whispers and sends healing to my heart.
Living well, does not mean, problem free
Living well means, in spite of pain, sorrow, heartbreaks,
You choose to wake up every morning to try your best to get a life.
Get a life!
Get a life!
Not for your sake
But for the sake of your family, friends and generation unborn
They need to find you alive
So that when they encounter similar challenges like yours
You can stand before them with a smile
And tell them confidently,"don't panic, you will overcome it."
If not today, surely tomorrow may be different.
So do not give up.
Attempt to live life.
