Inner strength and why it gets so hard to keep it up.

Category: Life

I'm sitting here listening to one of my favorites, Louis Armstrong, and he has such a calming style of music and as he's singing "what a wonderful world" its like everything in my life right now is just wonderful. Then the song goes off and I realize it to be different. It seems like it gets harder and harder to be hard and strong these days. Is it because I'm getting older or is it becaue I've lost site of my own inner strength to overcome obstacles in my life. I sometimes find myself trying to help others with their obstacles so that I don't have to worry about my own but they eventually catch up. Is it therefore a choice to be weaker by laziness or is it a choice to be weaker because of giving up? I don't know but there has got to be a way to restore the strength I once had and that I hope I am capable of having once again. Thank God for the people in my life that keep me together in mind, body, and soul because some people don't have anybody. I can't imagine.
