This Thing Called Life
I wonder about this thing called Life...
Sometimes it if full of joy...
Every thing in it place...
Smile on everyone's faces...
Laughter in our Hearts..
Love fills our every fiber
As our eyes take in each and every feature of our loved ones and embed them in our minds...
Then one day something happens.
It may be something Little..
It may be something Big...
Yet no matter we seem to pull ourselves together..
And we dive back into this Thing Called Life...
It seems we are able to take the Little and we Take the Big..
We put it all together..and we know in the end...This thing called Life will be just fine..
Then one day, when we feel our lives are pretty perfect...we feel we have done our best...Out of the Blue comes the Sadness that now is Overwhelming this Thing We Call Life...
When it happens we know, we will never be the same...this is something that is bigger than we are ever able to overcome...
We all know what that is...We all know the pain will be with us everyday..We know that now in This Thing Called Life has changed us forever more.
We will try to pull ourselves up...and sometimes we do for a while..Then we find ourselves falling back down into the pain that never ends....
Our loss in This Thing Called Life..is bigger than we could have imagined...and it hurts like something we have never felt before...
Time will sometimes wear us down...Time will make us someone we do not know...Time changes everything now in This Thing We Call Life..
This Thing We Call Life has now taken it's biggest toll...we don't even have to say the words...we just know...
This Thing We Call Life...at first we feel we can not go on...we feel it hurts too much...we want to beg, plead and change This Thing Called Life.
Yet here we are, all together...and some who have not found our group...and each day we write our feelings we take time to encourage, we share we know the feeling, we are there for each other...
For not This Thing Called Life...it is different than it was in the beginning of our First Stages of This Thing Called Life...We did not feel this pain..but somewhere along the way...as we say to each other...I'm Sorry...I understand...For now we know that This Thing Called Life for us has changed us...it has now made us one..Sandi
Each of us has joined together...we now have become one...as we now know the pain of each other...and we hold on tight when the rough times hit and we hold on tight when we know someone else needs us now..We reach out...for only can we know what This Thing Called Life feels like...
This Thing Called Life..has changed us all...it has bonded us in ways we wish we had never met...
Yet, now in This Thing Called Life We Are One!!!!
