I am not a great writer but I try hard with these blogs to be at least understandable, however, one thing is for sure I am not a poet and I do not have an editor to help me make sense. I jotted down a poem in my phone the other day when I was out walking and thought why not share it here. So I appologize if it is not gramatically correct, or flows as a poem typically should. (yes I am feeling a bit insecure sharing this and am appologizing like a blundering fool)...


This journey at times is hard
Fixing mountains of mistakes I've made
Hitting stumbling blocks, feeling despair
Falling down the walls being scarred


This journey at times is difficult
Remembering pains experienced each day
Viewing excitement from the sideline
Reflecting fly by words that insult

This journey at times is impossible
Drinking water as if drowning
Always wanting the wrong food
Moving masses seeming incapable

This journey at times is wonderful
Waking up early without pain
Running a mile because I can
Laying down to sleep quite tranquil

This journey at times is awesome
Finding strength unknown to me
Pushing my endurance to its limit
Watching my will power blossom

This journey at times is breathtaking
Each step is progress toward heaven
Meals are fuel consumed with passion
All movement is play worth making

This journey at times is hard
But the destination a blessed reward.


My name is Travis, and I am improving myself!
