Guest guest Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 It has been a few weeks since I posted. So much has gone wrong in the last month for my family! One thing right after the other....Four weeks ago I took my son and dropped him off at Bellermine University,(so of course I have empty nest and have been kinda depressed)two days later our air quit on our trailor. It cost 129 dollars for someone to come out and tell us it was actually going to cost over $1700 to fix it! We did'nt even have the $129 to begin with....soooo I went out and bought window fans. I cannot take the Sprycel while it is getting up to almost 100 degree's inside so I have been off of it for a month! Well about a week later our car broke down, so now we drive it only when nessacary and hope and pray it doesnt die. Then two weeks later (last weekend) Ike blew thru Texas and visited Kentucky!! Our trailor has about $6000 dollars worth of damage. We went without power or water for about 24 hours. But you know it coulda been alot worse! A neighbor had their whole roof torn off, my son went without power for about 4 days and Texas is still suffering. I am just grateful to God that we still have a roof over our heads and food! Anyway I said all that to kind of lay the ground work for why I wrote what I am about to post. From time to time I get words in my head and they just seem to burst out onto paper. I write pro's and some poetry. Usually it is when I am kind of depressed...(you know that artist thing goin on..lol) I start writing and it is very therapuetic, by the time I am done I usually feel alot better. I don't usually share alot of my writing but this one I would like to share....I hope you enjoy and I am sorry all this is so long! Hugs, Katy ps....sorry about some of the spelling, I may not know how to spell it but I DO know how to use it..lol Traveling This road so weary and worn............ My heart unravels broken and torn......... I'm sick, I'm tired, I'm down and out... Like a farmer after a long hard drought..... Anguish and despair fill my soul....... CML carries it's very own set of woe's....... We carry a burden so heavey and sad....... Regreting what we have left behind..... Or maybe just never had......... The rain pours a cold hard mist........ We search blindly in the darkness and Stumble upon a list........ Full of knowledge and caring concern...... Strangers meeting in uncertainty...... Falling into one anothers virtual arms..... Comforting and calling and sharing our pain..... The fog of confusion begins to fade..... Drops of golden sun filter into our minds..... Lush green umbrella's formed of tree's.... Spring into existence...... They fill us with hope..... People coming together as one....... Our hearts start to sing....... Home come's into view...... Suddenly it no longer matters...... How battered and beaten our bodies appear....... Our spirits soar as our burdens are lifted by unseen hands..... We are loved and comforted by fellow man....... Who are we to say...... That maybe, just maybe that was not what He had in mind...... That it was not exactly God's plan....... To open us up, and make us see...... That we cannot make it alone....it has to be......You and Me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
