“Life’s curvy trails” Photographed by Nicole Poston

What is life and what does it mean?

The battles you are forced to overcome can sometimes be worse than they seem.

Sometimes we mistake them for terribly bad,

Then our fear makes us miss out on the blessings we could have had.

Everything in life has some sort of logic,

Even though most of what comes our way seems evil and toxic.

But life is a journey we all embark upon.

It’s how you learn from your struggles you will begin healing from what you’ve undergone.

The hardest part of life is deciding who should be by your side,

Will they keep it ten toes down and always down to ride?

Along the paths, we travel during our lives,

We meet so many humans also trying to find the best ways to survive.

Our struggles can push us to the ultimate test,

Some will give up while others give their best.

I think some souls come into our life for a reason,

Although most are only there for a short time like a season.

Remember to take something from every interaction you share,

Because learning about yourself can only make you more aware,

Of all the things about you that make people care,

But also of your character flaws you possibly were unaware.

Self-evaluation can be your biggest home run,

Maybe it can help you undo the damage you’ve already done.

If not, allow it to guide you thru your future endeavors,

So that it helps keep the ones happy you want in your life forever.

If a loved one appears mean when telling you about something you’re doing bad,

Stop and realize they actually love you and aren’t trying to make you mad.

See, they care about you enough to show you why you fail,

and you should take it as a guiding hand while traveling down life’s curvy trails.

They truly just want to see you do better,

The fact that they help you instead of running away should be all that matters.

In the end they were by your side through the toughest parts,

Make sure to keep them near and dear to your heart,

These are the ones that are here not only for the reason,

They are the ones that will bare life with you through all of the seasons.
