Still Falling

by The Momma

woman falling

I have about a zillion things to be grateful for. I know I do, but it is very hard to look at all the things that seem to be going wrong and still be able to focus on the good things. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has this problem occasionally.

With all the car troubles and ex issues, with the problems that arise with children and the day to day of bills and expenses you can’t afford to pay. Life just seems to be so overwhelming. I feel at times that no matter what I try to accomplish I fall another rung lower on the ladder to reach my goals.

I know this sounds like a whiny rant, which it probably is, but I just can’t seem to hit a break even let alone get ahead. It is highly frustrating to be giving so much all the time and receiving not so much from the universe in return.

    I hear you! Allow me to rant along side you. It seems to be one thing after another, never enough money and then all of a sudden you take a moment to catch your breath and you realise this has been going on for 12 years! Does it ever get any easier?
