My Life, Your Life

When Life does not seem to be simple, what goes through your mind?
What do you do, do you blame yourself for all the wrong that happened,
Then, at the end you punish yourself for not knowing better?
When all that surrounds you doesn’t make sense at all-
What do you do, when all of it fails your understanding?

When you come to face the thing you love most,
The thing You’ve given your all to-the the one You know
It’s nothing but faithful-what happens when what you’ve
Grown to believe is honest and pure-is nothing but dishonest and tainted
What do you do, when that reality slaps you hard in the face?

When all you ever wanted in life, is to be loved and to love back-
But every time you faced love, love would turn away-love would
Laugh in your face, love would spear you in the back-
What would you do-would you still believe in love-would you still
Searches till one day you’d utter ‘at last‘?

When friends come in your life-and they seem so good and real
But-at some point, they begin to change. They begin to envy you; they
Begin to whisper against you-they begin to desire your desires, and begin
To try to take away the thing you find most valuable.
What would you do-do you let them to continue on robbing you-
Or do you brush them away from your life?

When you see the good in others-and when you see someone
Lending you a hand, to help pick yourself from what brought
You down. What do you do to thank them?
How do you reward them for helping you when no one
Stopped at your door to ask if you were dead or alive?

While we go through life, we see the unexpected.
We learn how to deal when things seem not so simple.
We grow; we blossom mentally as well as physically,
And while we learn how to accept and to move forward,
We become what we define to be an “adult”
We make choices-they sometimes are good and sometimes
Bad-Either way, we learn what can be best for us at the moment
And at the end.

While we go through life, we will learn who is true
What is true, who is real, and what is not.
We will brush away those who have mistreated us
And keep those who honored us-We would say thank You
To those who loved and helped us during the tragic times.
I will thank The Lord Jesus, for helping me see and breathe
The difficult and good time-For believing in me, for loving me
So much-I will thank Him Daily-I will thank Him for You and
For Me.
I know I will do all the things written, no matter
How bad life can get-But now I wonder, will YOU?
