All Doors Closed

Has there been a period in your life where all the doors felt closed on you? You felt trapped from inside so much that it choked your very thoughts. You got so confused about your existence that you even stopped questioning yourself for the reason Why life had become so mean towards you. What was the feeling you felt? Was it something like being taken down by a huge wave of the ocean, and you even though tried very hard to swim could not help yourself. You feel totally helpless. Like a small child struggling for some peace. If you have ever felt the tide of life totally against you, you would know exactly what i speak of. The tide is so strong and so determined to take you down, that you cant move an inch even though you try everything, but you get that weird feeling that everything is going against me. Things get worst if you dont have friends to help you out at that bad time of your life. I hope life does not take anyone through this route. But if you are there, dont worry, you are not alone. There have been others and will always be more in that same situation. Remember...when you swim through the most difficult tides you become the strongest swimmer. Although at that point you cant see any hope, but do not ever lose faith. These tides will be temporary, keep swimming.
