Why do I hurt, why do I feel pain?
Why can't I find the right path, too many to choose, everyone leading a different way?
Why is the sky so dark?
When will the sun rise?
Why can't I see, where is the light?
Why do I stumble?
Why doesn't anyone pick me up when I fall?
Why do I bleed, my strength slowly leaving my body?
Am I human, or something else, who knows?
When will I pass this test?
Why do the birds hover above, waiting for me to collapse?
NO!
I will survive, I will walk my own path, leading me to the light.
I will not give up, I will push through and fight to see the sun shine through the dark.
HERE I GO!
One foot in front of the other, down the path chosen for me.
I will look up and receive strength to walk the path leading to my destiny.
Open the door, turn the knob.
HERE I GO!
The journey begins in the dark leading to the light.

wonderful message, all the best!
thanks for sharing
A great message for life because we all have to pick ourselves up, dust ourselves down and get started again several times in life.
A timely reminder for yours truly to do just that.
I like this and pleased to have it among my favourites.
