Going To War

Although you may not realise it, every day you go to war.

Life is a constant battle

Between emotions and reason

Right and wrong

What you could do and what you should do

Going or staying

Spending or saving

Wanting or needing

Yes or No.

Every morning you wake and prepare for battle, not to conquer your neighbour, but instead, to conquer yourself.

War is always messy and never easy.

It brings with it pain and hardship.

But it’s only in the struggle that the battle can be ultimately won.
