If Life ain't fair what can you do about it?

[PoeticGMama]

Life is about hard knocks. No matter how much you try to do the right thing something, or somebody comes along and changes your path. Sometimes you ask why me? why now? but other times you say "this must be meant to happen" but then other times you say "What the hell?" and for me that's when I find myself stuck in a state of panic, anxiety, depression, frustration and sometimes guilt because I feel I no longer have control.

Through my trials I've found that they've each made me stronger but it's going through them that gets hard. It seems that everytime I prepare for the next journey of my life something comes to smack me two steps back leaving me scratching my head. And you know what? I'm tired.

I'm tired of ppl stepping in with their issues to destroy my plans. I'm tired of ppl wanting me to feel the way they feel about an issue. I'm tired of trying to be what I think ppl want to see. I'm tired of putting on a show for the world. I'm taking off the mask. You can like me or love me but i'M TIRED OF THE PRETENSES.  I have no control over what has come but I can work on what may become.

No life ain't fair but you can always get back up, brush yourself off and keep trying. If there is a tomorrow there is a possibiltiy to turn it all around. We must learn how to make the most of every situation. We have to hold our heads high and never let them see us sweat. Don't sweat the small stuff. If God brings us to it, he'll surely bring us through it. This too shall pass.

It ain't over til God calls us home.

So life ain't fair, but that God he gives us another day to turn it all around.
