Looseing it all

With fear raceing thru me like a lightening bolt in a thunder storm.

I sit and I wonder what will happen..

Tears rolling down my face like a water fall over the side of a mountin..

I sit and I wonder what will happen..

 My insides feeling like a shakeing leaf on a tree during a windy day..

I sit and I wonder what will happen..

Unsure if i can make it thru all that is happening..

I sit and I wonder what what will happen..

Will I still have a place to lay my head soon..

I sit and I wonder what will happen..

Will I still have a car to call my own.

I sit and I wonder what will happen..

Will I have anything that is any longer mine..

I sit and wonder what will happenn..

I fear I will loose everything..

I sit and I wonder what will happen..

With the loss of being able to figure things back out so I can survive..

I sit and I wonder what will happen..

Everything started out so good for me..

I never wondered what would happen..

My own place to make as I saw fit...

I never wondered what would happen..

With the excitment of picking out my own things..

I never wondered what would happen..

Now I sit and I look around knowing I could loose my home..

Loose my car and loose my freedom..

I sit around and I fear what will happen..

I could loose my life..

We know erach other !

Cathy i do the same every day. I learned a while ago on a job that if someting is incomplete (so to speak) to take what I do have and go as far as I can with it. I soon applied this philosophy to my life and it has kept me going moving forward. Sometines faster than others but it boils down to that wonderful quote I sometimes use - "Don't ever give up! This is a great personal write. Mark "There will always be someone who does not like your decision"

Cathy,

your verses draw out of me the thoughts I need to revisit ,to move forward. When I look back I see only the path,and the people that I have shared healing comfort with. When troubles come,it is good to have case studies to give us perspective ,and guidance. I surround myself with friends that don't tell me "Everything will be O.K.", but will say, "We will help you get through this." 'With the loss of being able to figure things back out so i can survive ' Shows me so much ,that you are a born survivior,and that you may stumble,but hardly fall. kind regards David
