Struggles

23Feb10

In a world with millions of people there are millions of hurdles and struggles to deal with on a daily basis. I am one of those people who happen to struggle just like everyone else. In the last five months I have made numerous mistakes, blunders and watched mishap after mishap happen, yet through it all I have been fortunate enough to have smiles, laughter and moments where everything feels just right occur as well. I keep moving forward even when I trip myself up, utter scornful words and just want to give up completely. I keep pushing myself knowing somehow I will make it through things, even if I am worse for the wear and my heart is more tattered than when I began the journey. I am hopeful I will be fortunate enough to have the few individuals who are dear to my heart at this moment to still be by my proverbial side. These poor souls I call friends are put through rigorous trials when riding on the emotional roller-coaster which is attached to me. Only the strong, willful, stubborn ones can survive me. I am lucky and grateful to call them mine at all.
