The longest days of our lives

Sometimes I wonder why the best of us have to face the toughest. Those who you feel don’t deserve this. You’ve seen them as inspire you, motivate you, help you help yourself and yet when it comes to their own journey their path is fraught with difficulties. It’s anti-climatic and depressing. Hard to believe that a person who has brought happiness to so many should be threatened. Makes me go “Why?”. This is the kind of thing that would happen to others, they who are careless and never-good-enough. No, no, this just won’t do.
Who decides the course of our lives? Who decides these “things you can’t control” criteria? How can things suddenly take such a drastic turn? A little slip and the sky falls down! Does God take a strict line with those whom he considers his best? Oh he does. He’s severe. So, the best are the best despite this or because of this? I will never know.

Just a prayer. Please let this pass. Quickly.
There is just so much that a person can take. Nobody deserves the scorn of loved ones. Especially when no harm was meant.
