along the way a thorn is stuck in your side and it hurts

you get caught up in things and every attempt you make at removing is thwarted

so you move along and you get used to the pain, it’s just there

doesn’t keep you awake at night, just keeps you from a restful sleep

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

time passes and you get reminders that it’s there but you kind of blow it off

but one morning, you can’t get out of bed, and you look up and you are staring at a tree

you wonder how it got there

a voice whispers in your ear, i have been reminding you and warning you for a long time, could have handled this yourself……………………..now you’re gonna need help

now maybe you’ll pay attention and i’ll show you where to find it

moral of this story: don’t let your thorn become a tree
