Going through it…it’s not about constantly looking back, thinking of what could have been, or why it’s not…
“Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass; it’s about learning to dance in the rain.” (Author Unknown)
Going Through It
It’s not about living life day after day,
hoping that things will always go your way.
It’s not about dreaming so hard, that all you do is sleep…
It’s about going through it.
It’s not about constantly planning.
trying to keep your life under control.
It’s not about trying to keep difficulties from happening…
It’s about going through it.
It’s not about constantly looking back,
thinking of what could have been, or why it’s not.
It’s not about being afraid to step out into the future…
It’s about going through it.
It’s not about trying to be something you’re not.
pretending to be someone one you were never meant to be.
It’s not about trying to please others; they don’t determine your self-worth.
It’s about going through it…living the life that is “you.”

We cannot always know what life will offer to us. Whether the terrain is bleak, or full and lush. We rarely have any other choice except going through it.
May you always have the courage to face any challenge and accept with open arms any opportunity that your life is blessed with.
Peace and love,
Felecia
