Topic: TUNNEL VISION | |
---|---|
My heart is beating 100 miles an hour. I see this light at the end of the tunnel and I start running toward it. At the same time the light gets further and further away from me. So I start to run faster, but it doesn't help. Then the light starts to get fainter and fainter, and the next thing you know the darkness surrounds me and swallows me up and I can’t help but fall to my knees and scream. But the problem is no sound comes out. At that moment I begin to hope that I will wake up from this dream at any moment, but the thing is I wasn’t even dreaming. It was real life trying to take over me. I tried to get back up and keep moving forward in the darkness, only to be pushed to my knees once again. I struggle to get back up for the last time only to find myself forced to my knees once again. I screamed for help, but still no sound. I look up to the heavens and the tears begin to fall. I shout I surrender, I give up, but that didn’t help because I knew deep down that it wasn’t my time yet. As the last piece of hope I was holding onto fades and when I thought there was no one out there, I gazed into the horizon and I see shadows moving toward me. I breathe slowly hoping I will be found when I realized the people walking toward me were the ones that would always stand by my side. At first I was confused, until I came to the conclusion that this was all just a test. That’s all life is, is a test. It tests our strengths and our weaknesses. These tests in life are sometimes so cruel that it will wait to send help when you hit rock bottom and are ready to surrender and you can’t carry on anymore. That’s when we can look back and see the chaos we made it threw. As I am helped to my feet a blinding light appears and I see that I am standing at the end of the tunnel. I let out a roar of relief praying for sound and my voice echoes of the tunnels walls. Next thing you know we are being praised. Even if we had a little bit of help along the way, we all made it together and we should all be proud of ourselves. Because this life ain’t easy, but its our life and no matter how chaotic it gets we need each others support to make it threw these hard times.
