Life Goes On

Hey you, how are you feeling today? Better than yesterday, or just the same way? Did you eat, or maybe you didn’t Went to bed hungry, but still you’re here, resilient. Was it cold where you slept, or far too hot? Did you find warmth in a blanket or warmth you forgot? A hot shower, a cold bath Life finds its way along the narrowest path. Bills unpaid, the knock at the door, Bailiffs calling, but you’ve been here before. A job promotion, or another rejection Life marches on in every direction. A country at peace, or a country at war, Family divided, or love restored. Marriages crumble, couples engage Life pens its story on every page. And still, we rise, come what may, One more step, into another day

Hi Joshua, your timely poem underscores what I was discussing with my son today-that resilience is key to getting through life's problems. Enjoyed reading this! Aqua M.
