Show me the Light please

"Neither the fury of the blowing wind, nor the rage of the pouring rain, nor the might of the smothering earth can put out the fury of the fire that propels me to prevail and succeed" Unknown Author

My world seems very dark today. I've conquered each obstacle and yet they keep coming. I'm beginning to get bruised by all these bumps. I know it will end, I know the light will come. I've have never favored self pity.
It's non productive and debilitating . I do ask why sometimes though. Why does it seem that some people have a bumpier road than others. Its ironic though. Those same people also seem to experience heightened joyful periods. Maybe thats the deal? A mountain of putrid, heavy dirt gets tossed on you and you fight and claw your way out. Once you've reached the surface and cleaned the dirt from your eyes, the sun shines so brightly you think you'll go blind. The rays seep through your flesh and penetrate every part of you. It is sooo good. As close to heaven on earth as us lowly mortal beings ever get. I hope I never stop clawing to the surface.

I'm still here. I still have my boxing gloves on . That in itself is wonderful.
