Flight to freedom

In breaking, you realize how much you're made of;

In trying again, you learn to give it your life.

Risks are to be taken, in one way or another;

Hope ought to get stronger as pathways get narrower.

Will you remain distraught?

Will you give up because it's hard?

Or Will you fight the tears and simply aim to win?

Ordinary people, simple minds, delicate hearts;

They go on to achieve great feats- they do.

Do you have faith in you?

Maybe not. Why live in your body as you then?

If you cannot trust you-

Don't blame life for kicking you in the rear.

Or For throwing you onto a heap on the sidewalk.

Strength is in growing into the finest version of you.

It lies in passing fearlessly through the hottest fire;

It means walking unflinchingly on burning pieces of coal.

Tantrums won't get you there.

If you want to act dainty,

Go sit cross-legged in the corner;

Rest your burdens on someone else,

And wait to be led where they might take you.

It is a life of pure lifelessness, if you ask me though.

This is your life; live it your way.

Who are you?

What do you think you can do?

Where do you see yourself headed?

Do you need help to get there?

What if the risks don't pay off?

Will you be okay then? or Are you better now?

The questions could be many, the answer is one.

Where are your thoughts leading you?

That is His plan for you.

Meditate upon your dilemma- find YOU.

i guess i'd just go on with the flow... let Jesus guide me, lead me to where i am supposed to go. and be happy? maybe. with all my might, i will be. and at the end of the day, win or lose, it will be just me and the Lord.

@ Jodie-Ann:

You've been so sweet even when I haven't been able to read you back- thank you, Jodie-Ann!

Knowing my blog helped you makes me feel so good. :) I'll acknowledge- it has helped me tide through many similar times, too. We'll all sail through every crisis. It's good to hold hands and walk through though. It's nice when you know you have your back taken care of.
