Problems or Challenges?

Goldfinch60



We walk through the path of life

Finding new roads to travel

Taking us to places of wonder,

Sometimes places of sorrow,

But we always move on

Knowing that those better places

Will always come to us.

We also find times a challenge,

Where there seem to be a problem,

A problem halting us.

But to get further in life

Those problems must not be avoided,

They must be seen as a challenge,

A challenge to overcome,

And in doing that

Our lives become better,

As the strength it brings to us

Takes us to a more wonderful place,

A more wonderful place in our lives.

                I feel there is a lot of wisdom in those well-written words. I also think we learn far more, and feel more satisfaction from overcoming problems. Many throw the towel in too quickly though !

                • Goldfinch60

                  Thank you Jeremy. Yes we do learn more form overcoming problems, it is called experience and it cannot be taught.
