On this journey called life.
I’ve been working for four years,
But I’m still not rich.
I’m so determined, so driven.
Yet, it feels like I’ve been stuck in a ditch.
Climbing, climbing, and climbing some more.
Just to fall right back down to the floor.
I know one day I’ll be successful,
All my dreams accomplished.
A psychologist, an author, a blogger, a realtor, a business owner.
It’s all in God’s promise.
But why does it feel like I’ve had no progression?
It feels as if I’m going in circles, repeating the same cycles.
I need some correction.
I take five steps forward,
Only to be thrown twenty steps backwards.
I never stay down for long.
Instead, I lift my voice to God in song.
I cry out from my heart,
He’s known my desires from the start.
So because of His promise, I never truly worry.
I know this is all apart of my story.
The trials, the troubles, the tears.
God is my fortress. So I will never fear.
He is going to continue to guide me through all the strife
On this journey called life.
About the Creator
Shania Simmons
When the world fails me
My words never do
I will forever have my pen and page to cling to
Through the good & the bad
My writing is all I’ve ever had
Writing is a temporary escape for my mind
There is nothing more beautiful I could ever find.
