life is a race

life is like a really long race with checkpoints, but they are barely visible with the the human eye. and I'm going tell you how i see it through my eyes lol i started off this race so well i was keeping up with everybody and sometimes surpassing them and then sometimes leaving them in the dust, and while I'm running clear out in front of everyone, i start to take advantage of the situations I'm in, now instead of running I'm jogging. but that's OK I'm still doing well. but this race has gone on for hours now,and then days. now the pack has caught up to me ... but I'm still doing well!well the race goes on long and longer and the checkpoint that use to make you feel good and secure about yourself, well, they seem to fell like they are getting fewer and father between.the race goes on. now i find myself out of breath and struggling to keep up with the pack. but i still am keeping up!!, and the next thing i know, I'm slowing down and falling behind, but i keep telling myself its OK I'm still within eyesight of everyone else,so i just watch my feet and carry on. then i decide to look up and as i do realize that i have fallen so far behind that i find myself running alone but i don't give up.but i am growing tired of this race,and as i do i give up hope. and sometimes i feel like just walking off the track and start over and enter into another race and try better next time but i have been down and behind before and have seen myself come back up into the front again, its always a battle.but i also know that I'm a person that can do amazing things with a second wind.....but when will i get that second wind???..... i hope soon!
