The Test

It is the test of one's integrity or determination to stay whole. Will the winds of cruelty, injustices and pain crumble my motivation to stay human? Can it deastroy my motivation to endure and progress forward and not slip backwards? Can being a target of a bullzie stop the enjoyment of watching a glorious sunrise? Will small and large precise strikes prevent the hope inheritely created in a new day? Does unequal pressure of unfair judgement and treatment rain down disappointment? Only if my walk of faith is stopped or slowed down to crawl instead of a stride of love.
