I met a man who goes by Lee.
He is mean and cruel, not only to himself,
but also to me
Then I saw him sad and lonely,
wallowing in self pity.
Now I understand and I feel sorry.
It's like looking in the mirror:
The battle within.
The opponent is me.

This week's theme is all about "opponent."
We all know that the battle in our head is the hardest. It's a constant struggle and lately I have been having a struggle with what to do with my life.
There are so many things to do but where to start?
I am between contentment but yet wanting to have more.
So many questions too little answers or am I just complicating things?
I think the greatest factor of all is fear. That's one of the greatest opponents we have to face every day.
Going for mornings walks the past few days have cleared my head. Not a Eureka moment but at least I am less stressed.
