* Something *

Pain, loneliness and despair... three things prevalent of the day. It's like no one seems to care. It does not have to be this way. A void grows denser in your heart. Gloom casts over you like a cloud. As your mind begins to fall apart, your weary spirit screams out loud. There's no contentment in anything, a hungry soul often longs for more. Life and it's pleasures will not bring the happiness you are searching for. Ask yourself what's missing for you, something not pondered in your past; something to believe and to cling to, something transforming that will last. To do this is not at all so easy yet it merits just one simple try. Other ways might bring more misery. This will enlighten as time goes by; Grow into what God wants you to be. He'll guide your walk of life through. Pick up His book and say sincerely; 'I'm ready, what will You have me do.' No, it's not a miracle nor a quick fix. The answers will not come overnight. It takes readily renewed commitments, to live right by the way of His light. Somewhere down the road some day, Someone out of the blue will come to you and ask 'why you are living this way'? Happily, you can show them what to do. ***** Poetic Fanatic ***** Thomas F. Crumpler ©2,001 May Written October 17th, 2001 © on Nov 21 2001 06:53 AM PST, Thomas Crumpler   0 • 13
