A Walk Through Life - Yvonne Crist

. .

Résumé :
Life can fall to the depths of despair. And crumble into a million pieces. But there is nothing you cannot bear With a little prayer. As time and rhythm never cease. Life is a blessing, not a curse! Be a part of this world for better or worse! Life's not fair, but see, life is everywhere. Why don't you stop, take a breather, and read through a few poems to relax, uplift your spirits, and discover the journey I took through the last six years of my life. This journey was difficult and downright humbling, which allowed me time to pause, reflect, and write my thoughts and feelings down on the pages before you. You will find something of interest that will awaken your soul, and perhaps you will also find some solace through the difficulties you may have faced or are facing. Certainly, life can rock the bottom out of your world but know that life teaches us lessons. We need to take a time-out, recharge, and be true to ourselves. You may also find poems that will give you pause to ponder on all the abundance that we can embrace and to believe that there is something truly spiritual at play and poems that will inspire and embolden you to walk through your life with peace, courage, strength, and trust you are a worthy human being....
