On A Journey To The Unknown

Sometimes I Think It's A Blessing
~ By Sue ~

Another day I made it through
All the troubles that came my way
With all my dreams long forgotten
My troubles always seem to stay

While sitting here at this table
My mind just starts to wondering
Will this be a different day
Or will my heart keep on breaking

I focus on the good things now
Without thinking about the past few years
When my life was turned upside down
And my life was filled with such fears

Sometimes I think it's a blessing
To be living all by yourself
Troubles seem to be so much less
Than when you live with someone else

I wait for these injuries to all heal
So I can get my life back in order
Having a life I have always dreamed of
A life I know will be so much better

I would certainly have to 'Amen!' that.

I focus on the good things now...

as it should be.  Heal fast, and well,
and write of hope, and as things should be...

and they will become so.
