The Fight

Used to be happy, floating like a leaf in a beautiful stream..slowly but surely heading in the direction I wanted to go, having time to see the beautiful sunlight reflecting off the water and anticipating the happiness waiting for me at the end of the long journey.. Now, the stream has turned into an Ocean, waves of hate crashing into me from all sides, trying to throw me off course...fighting against the waves is hard! So hard..specially when you have to do it alone...sometimes it seems possible and I push on..sometimes I wonder if the fight is worth it, would be so much easier to Give up, and sink, slowly into the darkened depths, where there is peace if nothing else
