Am | Wasting My Time?

When a perpexing problem confronts us,
And we don't know what to do,
And sincerely try to discuss
The proper path to pursue.
We seem to get nowhere,
Try as hard may,
And it seems one has more than their share,
Maybe retribution is getting its pay.
Figure many ways when in a dilemma
New attacks thoroughly planned,
Therefore brains, mother wit and stamina
Are fundamental qualities to have at ones command
What causes this extreme doubt?
What makes wonder why?
Is age old question turn about
And trying to answer end with a sigh.
Time is the leveler of all things,
1t takes it's natural course
While don't know what it brings,
Let's have faith and wen keep from remorse
Continue be steadfast in every way,
Let not your heart ever doubt
That there's solution which someday,
Will be satisfactory if you are devout
AS Love always finds way,
Then come under Loves comforting protection
Don't get weary but continue to pray,
"Thy will be DONE" which eliminates any friction
