timing is everything Janet Kuypers 03/30/98 timing is everything, you know just when you say you’ve had enough just when you’re ready to wave that white flag and step out of the ring and stop playing the game and stop feeling the pain because you’re numb that’s when for a brief moment something wonderful happens and reminds you why you live and reminds you of what hope and joy and even love is and suddenly breathing is no longer a chore and suddenly nothing is a chore and suddenly there is no pain and suddenly you remember what it’s like to be alive and you start to like it well, that’s when they pull they rug out from under you, right at that moment, so that you can fall to the floor and then the biting sting of pain hurts that much more timing is everything, you know, they do it that way on purpose because they can’t let you go on feeling hope and not feeling pain this is their key, it’s all in the timing Copyright Janet Kuypers.
