Failure stared him in the face... Martina McBride - God's Will

When I came to this earth I came alone only to be joined a few years later on earth by my male counterpart.

We went about our lives unbeknownst to each other for many decades. Voila in my 50's, we met.

We danced around in our own worlds for still a few more years before uniting in our joint quest for PEACE.

FAILURE
stared him in the face

Mocking all that he has ever tried to do,
Seeking to lead him down the path of regret,

That eventually can mature into despair.
Leading into the world that is colored ever so softly

In shades of grey. Easy on the eye but lifeless and silent,
The wrong kind that leads into nihilism.

A world in which nothing matters
Nothing lasts or is important

The man was used to the world of soft shadows
Knowing well the dust filled land

A drought that chokes out all life,
The water of life elsewhere, far distant, that could wash the dust away

A place that he knows exists from his younger days when hope flourished, Ideals high and the good sought in a land of bright colors filled with life

That is until his weakness and inner conflict became something
more real than life itself

The wheel has turned many times
always returning to this conversation

The man knows this place well
This time he smiled
At the insults slung

Finally coming to the point of seeing what failure really is.
A simple chance of listening to the right voice

God's Will

And the faith and courage to continue and simply move on.
He reached out to whom he knew not

The light came quietly; softly whispering hope.
The future bright if only his heart turned
From mediating upon his failure,
toward the light that all should see, the divine presence that is love that brings good out of all things.

I wonder what he'd write today....... a few years down the rode from when he wrote this????????

I love him still and still believe in our united journey!!! PEACE my luv.
