do you ever sit and wonder, if life will one day give you the things you need to hold it near to you? If the elusive things that you desire most are even something you can obtain? Then when you finally come to a point in life that you find what you need are not the things that you once thought were needed but actually are specific people. They are not your car, your house, your jobs or your talents. They are living breathing humans. Family. As I sit staring deep in to the flame of this candle on my desk, I find myself asking if the things I find so very engulfing, are as important to the ones I wish to share them with. I know me, I have been down this road before, I get to a crossroads and someone else's desires win over mine, I will not take away the possibilities. I know I must remain me, but I do not want to be me alone. Yet fear drives itself right back in my face time and time again and again I would release for someone else, what I love most in life. A fool I am, I should grab on and hold as tight as life will allow. Yet my love is to strong even for this.
