Challenges Poem by Theorem The Truth Serum

Challenges, life has many, if you allow it to.
You can also walk away from it like a schoolyard fight.
If you choose to put on the gloves, I promise you,
there will be ups and downs and twists and turns.
If you walk away from them, you might find yourself
traveling down a straight but narrow path.
Narrow because it leads you down a tunnel,
and a tunnel has no sides, it makes you feel trapped,
focused on this narrow-minded-mediocrity.
It has no end, it will put each day on repeat
like a bad reoccurring childhood nightmare.
Challenges will be thrown at you everyday like
a person walking down the opposite side of a tunnel,
walking into the traffic, let it hit you, you might
find that it will buckle around you like you are Superman
standing in front of a train, but if it puts you in the hospital,
on life support (depressed and confused) - you just have to
recover and do it all over again. Our strength lies within
our ability to get through the hardest challenges in our lives.
I think there is no challenge that we can't face, but we'll never
know for sure, unless we face it head on, let's face it head on.
We can all do it together in a parallel dimension, our lives all
on a line traveling side by side, we are not alone.
Let's live through our challenges together as one society, one
global village and smile, embrace this domino effect.
Others will be inspired by your willingness to obliterate your challenges.They will in turn, decimate their own like a bullet through glass.
