When Dreams Lie Broken

What do you do when your future disappears like a mirage, and all your plans lie broken ?

Years of work, moving forward, step by step, … then gone.

The road ahead disappears … but will another take its place?

Imagined future gone … but did it ever exist?

All that’s left is ‘don’t know’ … and faith. Faith that the way ahead will become clear. Faith that doors will open. Faith that all was not in vain.

Interesting ‘problem’ … like a death, a bereavement.

Loss and gain, happiness and pain. The winds keep on blowing ….
