Here I am
Once again
Dueling with fear
I stand on the walls of my heart
The battlements of my vulnerability
Guarding what will fall captive all too soon
If I am not vigilant
If fear gets past my barricade
Or disarms my trembling frame
O be strong, my soul!
Put forth your best effort
I don't want to be constricted
I want to live
Be Strong, My Soul!

Be Strong, My Soul!
Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight...

Keep calm and pass the puck to Zucc. LGR

Stay calm, it will pass, and you'll feel great again.

Re: Be Strong, My Soul!
Thanks, S(OU)LAR. It's harder sometimes than others, of course, but I find if I can hang on through the worst of it, the best is often just around the corner. :)

Re: Be Strong, My Soul!
hello. I get like that too. with me my thoughts go to fast. it feels like I'm losing my mind. many other symtoms as well
I try to hang on. it does pass. and I feel better then before it happens. keep the faith.

Re: Be Strong, My Soul!
I very much like the image of the soul doing its best to protect the heart,
the source of strong and sometimes mysterious and unpredictable desires.
You have painted the tenuous situation quite well. Congrats on the well deserved Spotlight!
