What I learn from my Chicken Pox

No matter how well I plan something
No matter how sure I am of something
There is something beyond my control

No matter how I think that there is not time left
No matter how impossible things are
There is unexpected time laying around

No matter how bad I want something
No matter how hard I strive for it
When He says no, I won’t get it

No matter how reliable I think I am
No matter how independent I think I am
There is time when I am the weakest and the most helpless

No matter how unstoppable I think I am
No matter how proud I am of my persistence
When He stops me, I have to stop
