Suffering Joy

one suffers joyful sorrow
learning life
one seeks pleasure
finding strife

one suffers joyful pain
finding meaning
in loves refrain

one searches treasures
finding junk
souls wasted

one screams hopeful
finding faith
ever fleeting

one seeks youth
finding age
learning life

one seeks joy
finding wisdom
one suffers eternity
finding freedom

(c) D.E. Clark

Thoughtful write, enjoyed the yard sales yesterday seeking treasures, still learning a lot about life, freedom, eternity, Have faith like a mustard seed, everything I believe leads to good or we would not be experiencing it. I lost my love, and it has brought great pain. But I will suffer in joyfulness knowing God is doing great things for me still. God Bless you eternally.

Dale, life can surely throw us some punches in this life but each failing is a lesson well learned. I loved this!
