You Deal

When you get dealt a hand at life, you have two chances to trade a few cards in for another try. When you get dealt a junk hand you have the choice to fold, to give up, but what can you do except deal. Crazy things they happen and you shouldn't get scared if it doesn't play out the way you want it to. You deal, you do what you can and when it seems life cannot get any worse and you can't do anymore you just deal. It is the world and it is life it may suck at times but, what can you do besides just deal.

So true Amanda none of us knows what life's planned.We just have to get on with it.But not alone.I don't know your pain.But I do know what it feels like to suffer From one fellow human being to another I offer you my love and care.Which I wouldn't be able to do without support from without and within.Love and laughter sustain me.I love reading your poetry it touches me.I think you write beautifully.This is one of the good hands you were dealt.That is a joy for you and for others. Love June
