Spinning


What is it about life that makes life such a challenge? Is it the uphill battles with the rocks crumbling underneath your feet, sending you right back to the beginning of your journey? Might it be the stormy waves crashing through your thoughts like the rattle of the windowpanes in a thunder storm? These things, these thoughts, they are destructive. They tumble and rumble through your mind, leaving behind a path of loose and jumbled emotions like the lives torn apart brick by brick by the wrath of a tornado spinning out of control.
