(my first go in a while...more of a commentary of my own life at the moment)
-People, relationships, love, anything of meaning or a cause of heartache, as far as I'm concerned, are like sharp objects protruding from the sea. They are jagged edged rocks out not too far on the ocean floor. These concerns reach your water level and make headway towards the sky, almost blinding your ability to see forward. And it cna be like that for al ong time, at least it seems in such a way. You're afraid to go froward, afraid to cut your feet on the edges, afraid something is behind this huge obstacle, afraid that this monster won't stop growing, so you sit back and take your time coming up with a way to overcome this seemingly insurmountable object. And the truth is, while you're going about this trying to figure out a solution, these huge jagged rocks are being withered down by time itself. It's chipping away with each passing day. Thsoe edges becoming touchable now. And soon enough, you have the courage to maybe even push back, because you know these once blade-like edges won't sting your hands today. The weight of these objects becoming just that...And then, you take a few steps back, and take a good look at the horizon. The realization that you're hair is a little lighter, your skin a little rougher, your smile a little worn, your heart a little heavier, and come to see that your ocean is chalk full of smooth rocks...and your smirk because that horizon is inching its way closer to you. Such a beautiful light that it emits to your life. There's nothing left to fear.
