Old and tangled roots

Taking days to breach the earth

Teach about patience

Life, can throw you a million curves

You quickly become so distraught

Thinking it’s more, than you deserve

Your mind, becomes overwrought

No need to be frantic, just let it be

Duck, when it throws a curve ball

Things will get better, eventually

Be patient, it’s your life, after all

A Bit of an Update ~ The Days Ahead

Good evening/morning, dear friends,

I’ll try not to ramble, but please forgive me if I do  🙂

Most of you who have been following my blog for some time know how upside down my life has been over the past year and a half.  My daughter had been in and out of the hospital for most of 2016 and a part of the beginning of 2017.  She suffers from Sjogren’s Syndrome, among other things, and she’s only 27.  It breaks my heart to see someone so young struggling to get through a day that others think nothing of.  For those of you who pray, please keep her in your thoughts.  Thank you.  🙂

As for me, well, that’s another can of worms.  I suffer from Transverse Myelitis and was recently diagnosed with “essential tremor“.  To say this freaked me out, is putting it mildly.  There is no cure.  They will get progressively worse.  So, if I miss commenting or liking your post, please don’t hold it against me.  My days are filled with trying to take care of everything else, including beginning to pack as we’ll need to sell our home.  There usually isn’t time to take care of me, but looks like I won’t have much choice.  It’s getting harder to type, so I will eventually need to switch to my Dragon software and go voice to type.  I’m so frustrated over all of it.

I love you all, and always appreciate your support, from the bottom of my heart.  I haven’t forgotten you.  Just be patient with me.  I’ll figure it all out.  I’m not a quitter by any means.  I only know how to fight for what I want and this is a battle I am sure to win!!

No End in Sight ~ #NaPoWriMo #poetry

I know not where it is, I should turn

As thoughts inside, begin to churn

An acid, meant to truly burn

A helpless moment, of which I yearn

*

To cast away, the thoughtless words

From a hateful voice, it’s so absurd

To know that I’m not really heard

My patience, buried, now interred

*

Into hopelessness, I need to fight

To end this horrid, dreadful plight

That I endure, both day and night

For where there seems, no end in sight
