Just a game of shoots and Ladders

A few months ago I was beginning to see that I was losing my gasp on the personal events in my life. It was slight and I had a brief moment of doubt where I knew if I didn't do anything that I would crash. Surprise I some how gained focused and began to be more in control then I have ever felt with work, my finances, friends and family. I was making and climbing my own steps and felt more clear with each one accomplished. Now things have become harder in just three weeks I feel like its now a game of Shoots and Ladders and I'm waiting for the next contestant to take there turn and see if I can over come the obstacle or slide back further then I started. And When did climbing a ladder become the fun part? I wanna be a child again when I loved sliding down the slide and that's what made the climb so much easier was the freedom and fun you got to have when we were out of speeding out of control. Hitting the bottom wasn't so bad either, it was safe and secure. Now I have never played the real shoots and ladders but  I'm hoping its a lot more fun then the board I'm on,  Maybe I'm just being a sore loser because I'm new at this game and I should just get over it and learn to enjoy the opportunity's that bring me ladders to climb, it is life after all.
