Life Goes On

Life Goes On

There are many obstacles in life,
That lead you astray from your wishful plan of happiness.
Obstacles that force changes, grief, and strife.
Some questions might arise that require much more thinking than a guess.
I've been through many obstacles and I can say from experience, they're not easy.
Just thinking about them now makes my heart ache and my stomach a little queasy.
They all have hurt and required a lot of time, and prayer.
In that moment, I always thought these trials were awful and unfair.
But as I reflect, my Father in Heaven was helping me prepare.
He really does care.
When an obstacle does arive,
The important thing to remember is that life goes on.
There's a lot more to life than just trying to survive.
Before you know it, life is gone.
So live in the moment, take chances, and be happy.
And when those obstacles come, greet them with open arms.
They'll strengthen you, and prepare you for the better and brighter future.
Just remember: Life goes on.
Life Goes On.
