Lifes Journey

Funny how life experiences twist you
You are not yourself any more
Because your mind is twisted
Your personality becomes a shadow of itself
Other times it might make you a better you
Funny how you don’t trust anymore
Because of a betrayal
Betrayal from a close friend or family member
It’s called the fruits from life’s journey
You see no one can tell which bat life is going to swing
Or where life is going to take us to
Never mind that some experiences is an outcome of our stupidity
Even silly mistakes
Some say its destiny
Yeah no two destinies are identical
Love don’t come easy
Sometimes we pay with broken hearts and divorces
Others not so lucky never find love
Some even pay with their lives
You see you never learn how to manage money till you are bankrupt
And you have bills to pay
For the wise they learn and for they foolish they continue on the path of destruction
I wish we can tell tomorrow
Or when evil is lurking around the corner
But sadly no one can tell
Life has beaten some people down to the point of submission
This people go into shock when they get their first new car or some other material stuff
Some others have received enough rejection to last a life time
But love has some strange way of coming to us
Life has its ups and downs
So when it’s raining use your umbrella of hope 
And believe that Jehovah will come through for you
And when the sun of success is shining 
Bask in it in praise and worship to Jehovah
For in His presence is fullness of joy and pleasures forevermore at His right hand
Life is sweet don’t complicate it 
That’s why suicide is foolishness
For there is nothing new under the sun
What you are experiencing or going through
Is kindergarten suffering for others
And you arrogant one your salary is someone else’s tithe
So what’s the pride for
In this world we all shall have tribulation
So says my Saviour Jesus Christ
 I can’t tell and no one can what tribulation will come your way
But one thing am sure is that Jesus has overcome
So cheer up
