I caught up with an old friend tonight.
And after a couple of laughs (and a decent amount of heart-breaking memories) I found myself left with this question:
"Is this life only about giving and taking? Can this really be the only thing that keeps our stone-hearts beating?"
And then it hit me, like a lighting-rod in the midsts of an electrical storm;
This life is about accepting and understanding that not everything will be golden on this yellow-brick road that we call life.
And in despite of it all,
you will be okay.
Wrote this shortly after it happened.
It's more of an extended thought than anything. :b
I reused a few lines from some of my earliest pieces to coincide with the idea that I "caught up with the past" a little bit.
