Boxing Myself Into a Corner

Exhausting all channels of possibilities
All the wrong resources, 

Worrying which never helps.
Burdening Others 
None of whom can help in any possible way.

Because you 
Are not brave enough
To talk to the only person who can help?

I did not think I would ever do this again, but unfortunately I have.

Hi Caren, The feeling of being "boxed" in a corner is not a good feeling at all. I the "fear" is the culprit because it paralyses you- Alexis

It truly does, and sometimes it makes you do the wrong thing too.

So many times. I think the fear is the reaction.

It does not help much to have a WILD imagination either.

The challenges that we have to face in life; some we meet; others...well, sometimes our courage fails us or we fail our courage!
