Getting Lost
It's easy to get lost just about anywhere. Get lost in a book, in a song, in the eyes of someone you love. It's far too easy to get lost when your student teacher goes off on an insanely complicated problem in Geometry.
But when you find yourself lost in a strange city, airport, or forest with no one you trust there to help you, the panic starts. You're afraid to ask for help from a stranger. Stranger danger.
When you take a wrong turn in life, you feel lost. Helpless. You've lost your connection with your family. You can't find the guidance of your parents. You can't remember where you went wrong.
But there is help. Your parents are asleep in the room across the hall. They are always there for you. They will listen if you take the time to talk.
Friends and family will help you find your way once again, and will do their best to keep you from drifting off and plunging into the ditch on the side of the road.
sometimes I wish my mom was just across the hall... i have feelings of restlessness from time to time, and anxiety... and i wish there was someone i could just talk to. ( i mean, duh - I know there's God and prayer. but you know what i mean.) I hate that lonely feeling. I hate feeling like I need to find my way. well written.
