This journal reminds us of how trapped mental struggles make us feel, and how resilient we need to be to find happiness and hope. Mistakes are unintentional, and decisions are intentional! As adults, we tend to lean more toward making wrong decisions that end up as mistakes after a situation occurs. Our decisions are swayed by feelings that often cause us to self-sabotage. In an irrational mind, trickery forms delusions, and decisions are made that are later regretted. The world is full of ups and downs; it takes our minds on a Marry Go Round! Our smiles are now frowns, and our spirits have drowned. It is hard to see, and minds cannot conceive; that we must believe in all things! But do you fear, nor have an ear? Behold... The "FINAL DESTINATION" is near! ... ExTra ExTra... The world is under attack, black people have been under attack, women are under attack, muscularity is under attack, our democracy is under attack, and now, our children are under attack! The writer of Freedom From Isolation is looking to inspire readers across the globe with thought-provoking questions: Can you lose everything but your joy? Will you break, bend, or fold under tribulation, test, trial, or trouble? What does resilience mean? What are we going to do? What are we hoping for? When is it coming, or who is coming? Why is it taking so long? These are all valid concerns, but no one can answer these questions. AT A TIME SUCH AS THIS! There has been a wave of coaches, prophets, and other so-called inspirational leaders who have graced the world with their presence but most of them are hypocrites and cannot be trusted either. Let's say we have two choices, and they are permanent, so we cannot have a redo. Remember, this journal pertains to real life and is not hypothetical, nor should it be taken lightly. It is not tricky; it needs careful consideration. The choices are 1) Being in a Sauna, or 2) Being in a Jacuzzi.
