The Struggle

The Struggle

There will be hard times.
Bad things are going to happen.
Keep going

Acknowledge the struggle
face it squarely
and plot its demise.
Find its weaknesses,
instead of your own.

Struggle brings Worry
an uninvited guest
do not be hospitable.
set no place for
worry at your table.
Give it neither your
words or your tears.
Leave it to starve.
Worry well fed is
Depression unchecked.

Struggle is meant to refine
do not let it define you.
Struggle is a gift.
It is a lesson to learn.
A taskmaster
Know your part.

Struggle comes to teach you
that which you do not wish to
learn, but what you must to
be complete.

Struggle is the answered
siren's call your soul sent out.
It is a dealmaker asking
"what will you give me
in trade?"
Barter well.

There will be hard times.
Bad things are going to happen.
Keep going.
