Life Gifts

Hardship,

A blessing in disguise.

A barrier in the moment,

Until we choose to open our eyes

Disability,

A limitation with surprise.

A preventative in our dreams,

Until it's our time to realize.

Change,

A growth in Life.

A mystery amidst routine,

Until we embrace the strife

Many events in Life become labelled occurrences and its purpose and beauty are dismissed. Hardship, disability and change have been Life gifts that I hold dear. Never desired when I think I know and always offering gifts when I choose to be open.
