The last few days has brought on the rain
But I won't let it bring back the pain
Or the anxiety or the mounting stress
Just the opposite, it has been getting less
For years I was trapped and now I'm free!
Free from the anxiety so I can be me!
I'll look back at this time like a passerby
Never to ask God for the reasons why
These hardships made me stronger, true
For all the times I felt so lost and blue
Wondering what my purpose was and why
I thought He left me here to rot and die
So I have renewed purpose here again
Excited am I to start life anew, but when?
Patience is a virtue, and I need it badly
Because now I still need to take care of me

Thank you so much Andy! Appreciate the sentiment and your friendship!

I frequently remind myself
that I must take care of me.
like always keep one eye open.
Thanks, I have a friend that always says "be good to you". Appreciate the kind words!
You can take care of me! Oh, you mean 'me' as in 'yourself'. heehee. A fine write Christina.
I dunno. I have a problem. I gotta take care of 3 guys - me, myself, and I. Doh!
Thank you Steve! LOL
Who are these 3 people - me, myself, and I? haven't we got enough to do with just tending to one person?! lol.
Another uplifting write - great message
