What If?

Have you ever noticed how it seems you have to take the good with the bad?
What if everything is bad? What do you do then?
Have you ever noticed that teenagers hurt their future?
What if I'm doing the same?
Have you ever noticed that its always a conflict?
What if my conflict is between cutting and drinking?
Have you ever noticed how every one thinks you can do better except for you?
What if I do better but still balance on my white and floating in the blue.?
Have you ever noticed that things are hitting teens harder these days?
What if I just give up?
Have you ever noticed that everyones atleast a little scared of living?
What if Im scared too?

Tifanny, I am many years older than you and I am afraid sometimes. I worry sometimes, I even hurt a lot! But one thing sustains me-keeps me going on- my faith in God. He promised he would never leave us nor forsake us and that nothing can separate us from his love. So since he came and died for my horrible sins even before I was born, I trust Him and choose to follow him. He has never lied so I trust him! Peace and love, Audrey
