Life is not always wind blowing through your hair, good times, sweet sunshine, butterflies, rainbows, and everything oh so carefree. It pushes against us so hard sometimes to the point we may feel standing is the hardest thing to do. There are some times we have to crawl before we can even walk. It is in those times when our backs are against the wall that we become stronger and learn to fight. When it gets hard, we have to push harder. We muster up every ounce of strength within us and press on. Though the storms come and the winds beat vehemently upon us time and time again, we keep going on one step at a time. Whatever presents itself at the doorstep of our life; we learn how to handle each visitation. If life was easy, I believe we would take it for granted, more than we already do. We could all sit down right now and make a list of all our blessings; but what we tend to do first is highlight all the wrongs. We are not alone. Everyone has their own problems to face, and we can all learn from one another as we carry each other along. -Dawn H. 6/4/08 @ 5:19 p.m.
