What ? When? Where?

What? Do you do when you feel life pressures crashing down on you?

When? All your friends take the back seat, and your Heart wants to explode.

Where? Is your Mind from the beginning until the end?

During all this calamity do you feel like

What?  When?   Where?

Do You Go?

Hi Cathy, This is a question that most have asked themselves. But I think many struggle with getting an answer that truly gets them through the battles of life's challenges. I myself would answer this way. What, when and where do I go? To the Lord in prayer. Good write my friend, the answer is in the Lord!

Seems very conflicted. Love the subject matter. If you really are having these feelings you should be more positive. Your writing shows you have tremendous talent. Concentrate on the positives in life or the negatives will bring you down.

Hi Cathy. These are fair questions...I'd written some shorties on this. "the have and the have nots, reduced to pointless possibilities". Unless Calamity is a clam, these would be difficult to deal with. The 'where' for me is most likely the one that is easiest. I ground myself and settle back into my present moment. Nice write, wishing you and yours the best! Mikki
