"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." ~ Dr. Seuss


Life has its 

Twists and turns

That no one can see

But You 

 

Bad news

Hits us 

Hard

And we can't move 

 

Too shocked to speak

At first

Then the tears come

As it sets in 

 

We just can't 

Or won't believe

The unbelievable 

Truth

 

And when we finally

Accept it 

Everything is clear

When You're near

 

Because it was

Planned to happen 

And Your plan

Is always best 


The author's comments:

Again, surrender is one of the hardest things for us to do. We humans have the gift of free will, and with that comes innate stubborness and pride, which only gets us into trouble. So, sometimes God has to throw us a curveball to get our attention. The act of surrendering is usually interpreted as a weakness, but that's not the case. You are no weaker than anyone else on this planet when you surrender. No, you just recognize your weakness, and choose to do the right thing with it. And that's the way it should be.
