Vine

Loneliness creeps The heart weeps Unresolved issues find Their way through blind Places dark as black There is no going back Yet the vine grows Entangling the mind Answers waiting to find To lift these burdens That are too heavy to weigh For things I cannot say Heidi Sands 12/12/16

I just love the analogy here, a creeping vine in the mind, twisting and weaving its way, creating thoughts, ideas, dreams and fears. Really well written Heidi.

Yes it seems trouble and confusion can be like a vine twisting inside your head and tangling everything up, choking all good sense out of everything. At times like this it's good to be able to just slow down, take a deep breath and remember that like most blockages this too shall pass. God never promised an easy road. He just sent His Son to help us through the difficult parts. Great job here Heidi. Nicely done. Merry Christmas and a big seven from me. JB
