The moments in our life we may see as a test,
A whirlpool of emotions, a vortex of stress,

Our irrational thoughts that make us feel we regress,
In retrospect a backwards step is still one of progress.

It seems unending and with no resolve in sight,
A complex mind appears to be us human’s common plight,

If we stay true to ourselves and our intuition we do not fight,
That voice from within will always speaks what’s right.

From day to day issues, to life altering decisions,
Depending how we handle them can clarify our vision,

We can turn a blind eye to avoid any further friction,
Or we can learn a valuable lesson and get busy living.

To stay on our chosen path is tougher than it seems,
But can’t compare to the frustration felt, when we’re forced to ignore our dreams,

We continue on to keep the peace, ourselves the only ones deceived,
Why forget that life could be easier, when in our hearts we again believed.

Each time we stumble & feel our world come crashing down,
Take time to adjust before rising up from off the ground,

For you’ve been their before and will return no one can doubt,
What goes down must come up holding the wisdom you just found.
