challenges

There is a saying that God will not give you more than you can handle. Sometimes I am not sure I believe in that. I think challenges are presented to each of us each day and in our way we choose to handle them or try to tuck them inside, trying hard not to think of them, hoping they will disappear. But as much as you try to put them aside they are still there, nagging at the back of your mind, constantly reminding you that you have to deal with them. I have had many challenges lately, some physical and some emotional. It is hard to deal with all the challenges each day...some days I just want to give up...beg for mercy. Mercy does not come....each day I wake up and the elephant is in the room. It refuses to go away and I don't know how to get rid of it or deal with it.

So.....I will just live with the elephant, hoping that it will decide to leave on its' own.
