When Does It End?

OK.
One of the hardest things for me to face is when does this nightmare end?
Winston Churchill said, "If you're going through hell, keep going."
OK. Somehow, tonight - those words resonated with me.
I have been fighting all week with negative thoughts and ideas and junk that just occurs to my mind.
But what do I do?
I remember one of my favorite things: "Never complete a negative thought."
It really does help. Don't entertain negatives. The negatives are poison, to me anyway, for sure.
I have been going through hell for a while.
It doesn't matter the particulars: fill in your own personal hell. Whatever it is, it hurts. It's hurt for some time now. It seems like it will never end.
I know.
I know how you feel.
I know how endless the journey feels.
I know.
I know.
I KNOW.
"If you're going through hell, keep going."
That's the best I can do for you.
But I think it it the best for you, too.
Don't stop. Don't give in. Don't give out. Don't quit - please, please, PLEASE, don't quit.
Don't stop. Don't quit. At the end of this horrific journey lies the good stuff, the fruition of your labor.
DON'T STOP. DON'T QUIT.
GO...GO ON...KEEP ON KEEPING ON...PLEASE, MY FRIEND, don't stop.
I know how you want to quit. I know, you think no one knows how you feel. I know it seems like it has been for ever. FOR EVER. I know. I KNOW.
But don't stop, don't quit, don't give in, and don't give out.
Keep on. Keep going.
At the end iS YOUR rainbow.
Don't. Please, don't. You have SO much to give, so much to offer, so much love to add to this love-starved world.
Keep going. Keep on.
Go. Go. GO!
I don't know you.
I can only encourage you to keep on going. Keep on the path to the things you see, those things that you envision.

Some Truths are just so Obvious

...Still, a man hears what he wants to hear...

and disregards the rest...

I can say no more...
