Trying To Survive Sometimes it feels as though the sun is lost Seeking shelter behind the dismal clouds Things seem so cold, outlined with heavy frost The wind pounding against my weakened soul Hope I try to hold close becomes smaller Life's cruel sense of humor kicking me down I straighten my back… try to stand taller Even strongest wills can endure so much Sometimes it just feels like I’m in a hole Struggling… fighting to find my way out Try to survive and save this tattered soul Not to crumble and accept this sad loss My heart lies heavy inside of my chest I know I have love, and I am grateful But with this long winding path and life’s jest I feel lost… buried… and so alone.

Hope I try to hold close becomes smaller Life cruel sense of humor kicking me down I straighten my back… try to stand taller Even strongest wills can endure so much Powerful write...related much. |

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Tara, I know you are going through a difficult time right now, and my heart goes out to you always! (sigh) You have a very loving heart, sweet friend, and as long as you continue to share your love to all and believe in yourself, you will be greeted with love and cheer in return! (smiles) We all love you so much, sweet friend, you are an angel to us all! (kiss on cheek) You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Tara, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Tara HUGS I am lost, we havent spoken for a few days, only to say hi and bye, I didnt know you were upset over something. I expect you to spill everything and let me be here for you as you are always for me! Hugs sweetheart, Love you my friend! Ter. Alone in the dark, through my thoughts comfort I do seek, through my words I find peace. |

I'm always amazed how hard this time of year can be for a lot of people. . . I think that you just spoke for a lot of them. . . well done. . . and remember, it's never dark in the light. . . -------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
