Energy
You cannot evade energy
It's like dodging God
Or the universe in dodgeball
With the constant pitches of balls, flying towards you direction.
With all your might you are trying to save yourself from being hit by running and throwing back.
The game can go on for as long as there is a friend and foe at play.
Some of your pitches were bad throws too.
You'll get tired of running eventually, dodging the signs and lessons that are being tossed at you.
The continuous panting and running will pain you and make you want to give in,
Not as someone who gives up but as someone who accepts the reality of being struck.
You've went to feeling like a super human to anything worthless on the bottom of a shoe.
But where you will go wrong is with self-pity and self-destruction when it is not the bigger picture.
You must lose some to win some
You tell yourself "I am the one no matter the outcome"
You make a rise where there appears to be a pitfall.
You put yourself back in when it all restarts and come back with greater energy,
And you will find the game is working in your favor towards your win with your faith and trust in not only God or the universe,
But in yourself, and your energy.
