It's Not Okay

When a loved one dies, it's not okay but you will be.

When your loved one is sick, it's not okay but you both will be.

When a lover breaks your heart, it's not okay but you will be.

When a friend disappoints you, it's not okay but you will be.

When someone you love doesn't support you, it's not okay but you will be.

When you're in physical pain, it's not okay but you will be.

When worry keeps you up at night, it's not okay but you will be.

When you feel alone and scared, it's not okay but you will be.

When someone violates your mind, spirit, body or all three, it's not okay but you will be.

When defending yourself becomes moot, it's not okay but you will be.

When you lose the ability to do something you once loved, it's not okay but you will be.

When you feel money issues will cripple you, it's not okay but you will be.

When injury or illness literally cripples you, it's not okay but you will be.

When neighbors and fellow Americans senselessly hurting each other seems like too much bare, it's not okay but you will be.

When war all over the world makes you feel helpless, it's not okay but you will be.

When any or all of these things happen, it's not okay but you have the power to make yourself be.
