When it becomes clear

Where does the end begin?
You'll never win,
because the enemy,
is there from the start.

Barbara, The enemy is death. the second your born death appears and stays with you for the rest of your days. It's a battle to stay alive, sickness, accidents, and old age. Death has many weapons. When we're young we thing we're imortal, but as we get older it becomes clear. thank you for your comment Eddie if a man does not know love, he does not know God

Smiles:) Barbara i understand this well the moment we are born we start to die when reality hits, for me the body starts to tell the story as the body deteriorate death becomes a reality.
