I really don't know where to begin, so I will just get right into it.
For the last couple of weeks, it has felt like I was God’s least favorite being. I've ran into a couple of problems that seem to have no end in sight, and that seem to keep on compiling, one after the other. Misery and sorrow have come in hordes.
These events have pushed me into the dark embers of my thoughts and have honestly left me a bit depressed. In the last couple of weeks, I have lost a majority of what I have known myself to be so far - both materially and mentally; and that loss has destroyed me in ways I didn't know I could ever come back from.
But somehow, through God's grace, I have somehow been able to somehow find that hope that will hopefully sustain me moving forward.
With that said, all that's left now, is to try and pick the lost and destroyed pieces moving forward, and that is exactly what I intend on doing. I don't know if I will ever go back to how things were before, or even gain all that I have lost, but I must have hope and courage to live today and every other day after. Resilience must somehow remain and make a home of me going forward.
With that said, I won't be posting for a while, as I try to get my life together, and at least try and recover all that I have lost.
I also know, and somehow believe that I will come back stronger and better; and with that; all I ask, is that you do not give up on me.
I want to believe the next phase of my life will be my Season 2, and will be better than what you have known me to be. I also want to let you all know, my subscribers and Poems Poetry family, that I will be back to writing, posting and sharing this life with you, as soon as I possibly can.
With that said, if you could, and would want to support me in anyway in the meantime; send a word of encouragement my way; buy copies of my books; and most importantly become a paid subscriber if you are not one already. And to my paid subscribers, I hope you remain with me as I go through this phase of my life. Lastly, if you would like to support me in kind, you could always send/donate whatever amount you can, even if it's a dollar to my Paypal - bmangiti@yahoo.com.
Writing this, despite everything that has happened, and is happening, I somehow have hope that all will be well. See you all on the sunny side!
