How is it that we know what to do,
When times of conflict have left us
Bereft of direction?
When all our plans, for whatever reason, are
Suddenly made null and void?
The sudden loss of a job, a car,
A friend or loved one can ‘set your mind adrift’, and that is
Not a good thing.
Perhaps you have made a mistake and
Are now dealing with the consequences, or perhaps it
Is something that is out of your hands.
That is the
One that leaves you feeling truly helpless.
What to do?
Where to go?
How am I going to get
There?
Our lives are filled with unknowns;
Uncertainties lurk around every corner.
Isn’t that what life is all about?
Do we not start at the beginning where
EVERYTHING is an unknown?
We start out with a blank
Slate, and our lives are
The chalk marks we
Make along the
Way. We must
Learn as
We go.

Good one
It's odd to me how, (and this happens a lot), something I wrote 1, 2 or even 3 yrs ago, can be so VERY poignant for something that has just happened to me.
I know what you mean. It’s an ah ha moment that usually makes me chuckle to myself.
