Things Fall Apart

My Thoughts 8/23/17:

Sometimes things fall apart. Those closest to us abandon us and cause us pain. At times it feels like the thread we’re holding on to is going to break. Sometimes it does. Snap. Break. Broken. Other times we lose our grip. Slip. Fall. Falling. Battle scars seemingly cover our very being. Bruised. Bruising. Scarred. Soul aches. Heart heavy. Mind cloudy. Labored breathing. Winded. Devastated. Dire. The fight appears to be never-ending. Wounded. Whipped. Hurt. Weariness calls out from the distance. Confusion and brokenness slow dance around us. Words sown into our life take root and sprout up. Some damage. Others repair. Sadness cries in the dark. Sit in it. Don’t wallow. Let it soak in. Mourn the loss. Scream. Cry. Ache. Process the situation. Suffering is inevitable. Survival is possible. Correct perception is crucial. Breathe. God is in control. Refuse to die. Choose to live. This too shall pass.
