Looking back at those younger years of my life ' <br />'Twas not a happy one... <br />For I have to struggle with life to go on living.. <br />Troubles and stripe were always there ready to pull me down. <br />There were times I almost lost in the shadow of darkness and drifted my life away.Those times were I am all alone no one understand. <br />Nobody wants to listen. Nobody wants to lend a helping hand....So I leave... <br /> <br />I get up wipe my tears. I need to be strong to pursue my dream <br />A dream to have a better life someday... <br />As I begin with my journey I met different people from all walks of life, <br />Some pull me down, others pull me up..Some smile but wane at my back. <br /> <br />Every step I make I always: <br />('Stand at the crossroad and look ask for the ancient paths where the best road is, walk in it and you will live in peace. ' - JEREMIAH 6: 16) .... <br />. <br /> I picked up brilliant stones of knowledge along with me. <br />And survived all the trials along the way. <br />Now I reach the peak of my journey. Reaping every grain that I have planted. Enjoying the view from above w/family around I could not ask for more.. <br />Sooner or later I go down turning on the next chapter of my journey... <br />Where I stand at the crossroad again waiting for the next generation to come.....<br /><br />ging taping<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-journey-28/
