Shatter Proof
Shatterproof is my new blog for 2007. 2006 was the year of the Jo. 2007 is about that solid core inside me that keeps me from shattering completely. 2007 is about God, and the transformation of me and my life I hope for in Him. Welcome readers, old and new, to Shatterproof

Kicking me when I'm down

Perception

Kick me when I'm down.
Tempt me at my weakest.
Taunt me when I can barely keep
my head above water.
Twist my perceptions,
through gossip,
so I don't know what's true any more.
Laugh at me as I stumble blindly.
When I'm crawling, you ridicule,
belittle, humiliate me.

"How pathetic", you cry.
"How pathetic you are", I respond,
"that you delight in a fight
when I'm already down".

"How weak you are", you whisper in my ear.
"No weaker than you", I respond,
"if you can only bring me lower".

"I've won this battle", you crow.
I look at you.
"But you've lost the war."
Of course, the enemy is going to use this date my friend went on to kick me when I'm down, to stop me in my tracks.

I need to rise above this and not let him win.
