Overcoming Gravity

In life there are ups and downs ;today the latter reintroduced itself in a novel form.

Initially, there was pure unhindered shock leading me to pace incessantly while suppressing urges to act in a harsh manner to say at the least. Within minutes, I knew I needed to let this out before it consumed my entire being. I did and slowly the shock, anger, guilt, and outrageous means of justice left my mind.

While I wish that today never came, I know that the situation was brought to my attention because God trusted me to deal with it. I'll have to face it tomorrow but a soupcon of me hopes that tonight never ends. But then there would only be waiting and that would drain what little strength left in me. While I may feel weak now, I know that when the sunrises I will be as strong, fierce and even as ferocious as a tiger in the midst of a territorial war.

That's what this is essentially, a dispute over land amongst the good and evil. In this materialistic and seeming immoral time, God exists and sees all. I need strength to face this head on and to be successful because I will not sacrifice a loved one, I won't give up. It's going to be exhausting but I care about this person too much to let him continue on this wrongfully chosen path. It rips my heart to know of this treachery but I will not let my anger push us apart. I will seek wisdom and serenity to change a seemingly hopeless future. Failure is not an option.
