Forward and Back

A step forward, could it be a step back; sometimes it seems like every step you take; does'nt go forward or back. Sometimes, I feel froze in a position incomplete; A position of nothing, no life without a beat.

I know this feeling very well. Guess it happens at times, or at least it seems to be this way - frozen. Well expressed, I know just what you mean. Love, Shar

Sometimes we just need to side step a bit before we can find the place appropriate to continue forward... E

Vanessa - I reckon at times we all feel frozen in place - This poem believe it or not reminds me of Prison - When you go in the outside world is frozen in your mind and when you get out years later everything has changed - It's very hard to adapt - God Bless, MJ

Trust me my friend we have all been there. I call it marking time. It's during these times I take baby steps one day at a time. Proverbs 3:5 tells us in all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy path. Continue to write. Your answer is at the end of your pen.
