Eradicating problems and obstacles in your daily life can be a challenge in it's self, but it's apparent that all people will have problems, and all people will have obstacles in there way at one time or another throughout there journey in life. It's certain that we all have the problems and face obstacles and challenges in our lives each and every day, but it's it's also true that some people seem to have more problems or face more obstacles in there life than others. I'm not sure why life seems to go this way, but in ways I do feel that many of us create our own problems and obstacles, and that could explain the reason some people seem to face more problems and obstacles in there life than others. Maybe these people don't realize the things they need to change around them or in there lives that contributes to those many problems or obstacles that they face in there life. It's true what they say about we are our own worst enemy, and I feel that this is true to with some of the problems and obstacles we may sometimes face throughout life.

The fact is that life is not easy and we're always going to have problems or obstacles in life that we must learn to overcome throughout living that life. I feel that how you are able to overcome those obstacles or problems in life is the critical and important part, and in overcoming these problems and obstacles in life is what makes us wise and strong in life. I know that I've faced problems and obstacles in my own life, and sometimes it seems that taking a positive approach has been most helpful at eliminating those problems and obstacles,and it's also true that I usually learned a valuable lesson through eliminating that problem or obstacle that helps me in a positive way in living my life. I also feel that these lessons I've learned in eliminating these problems or obstacles in my own life are quiet helpful in helping me gain strength in myself. I feel that in ways we all have these problems or obstacles to test us or to make us stronger so that life will be easier, or I feel that sometimes there's problems or obstacles in our life that will have something positive come from us getting through the problem or around the obstacles that threatend to slow us down in life. The following poem is one I wrote that explains in some ways the problems and obstacles standing in our way in life, and how I feel this makes life in some ways similar to a game. The poem is called "The Game Of Life", and perhaps it will give you inspiration to help you work past your problems or obstacles that you face in your life.

The Game Of Life:

I was playing chess with my friend.
I was winning big it was near the end.
He was'nt taking it very well at all,
Perhaps because I laughed at his fall.

Sometimes you see in the game of baseball,
A batter strikes, and throws things at the wall.
He stomps around, keeps on to his very shame
until the umpire throws him out of the game.

If he's on that other team,
Aw shucks! It sounds so mean!
We laugh and think it's funny
It's just a game, not money!

But in our game of life,
We must deal with some strife.
We can't afford to lose,
We have one life we can use.

If life were just a game,
We could play it once again.
and play it over day or night
or until we learned to do it right.

Must it be, some will win; some will lose
No! Because we have our own power to choose.
We can follow someone who was there once before
Trust God and he'll help you win and so much more.
