Fighting
Always fighting is she
For the dream
in which she believes
Refusing to give
up and toe the line
Against the odds
she’ll always try
For if she gives up
then over life will be
Trapped in life’s
conformity
she’ll fight
always
’til the end
of days

Sounds like a never ending struggle – all good wishes, Eric

Bless you Eric. It’s just life but hope is always there along with the fight.

I am learning (slowly) that the fight is not always malicious, it can provoke positive change. One day perhaps I will learn to rise to life’s challenges with a playful spirit and enjoy the lessons that I must learn.
It is the challenge of life that is also the reward, when we realise this we can start to pick and choose our challenges and lessons, like graduating from school to then being able to pick and choose our subjects and component modules at university.
Life is always teaching us, but we have to be willing to learn and enjoy this process.

I agree with everything you said here Gordon. It’s always about the fight though but as you said it depends on how you use it? Mine used to be a negative world some years back but not anymore thankfully.
