I find myself trying to look away from the storm ahead, yet life seems determined to teach me how to face it head-on. It’s during moments like these that I turn to writing. I've often wished I could approach life with a bovine calmness- unshaken and indifferent- but it never quite works that way. When I work toward something, I can't help but hope for the best results. It used to be for others, but now, it’s for me.
I can only hope I’ll navigate this rough phase of my life with resilience.
Have you ever experienced a 'lowest point' in your life? How did you make it through?

Having a creative outlet is likely to help, the struggle can bring inspiration and many artists created masterpieces when they were at their lowest. I'd call it transmutation, or the alchemic process of turning "lead" into "gold".
I'm sure everything will make sense in the future, be patient and confide in the Holy.

I wish you the very best. You seem so calm and logical about it.
Well I have no choice to face adversity head on, for there is no one else to help me survive it.
Oh there are many times in life including now being without a place to live once again is a possibility to prepare for.

Of course I have... and I just kept going, no matter what else was happening in my life. If you ever stop, then life overwhelms you.
I know you'll do just fine. I believe in you.
