Why Are We Here

I often wondered why I am here caught in a shadow between darkness and fear. Living in hope, as life rolls along left at the wayside, when things went wrong. My faith is tested everyday believing our lord will show me the way. Is there a heaven, is there a hell maybe there's nothing, just an empty shell. And yet I still believe in God maybe I'm a fool. If there's nothing out there then what's the point of it all?

It has been hard at times, losing my mum, then my wife Ann. But still life must go on, sending my best wishes to you and Alan.
