forgive the urgency...
i wanted to say something. just about life and how things go in general. which is what i usually want to say and i think i am repeating myself indefinitely. i probably will be until the day the earth is no longer my home or the setting for my existence.
but while i'm still here i wanted to say something. i feel love. a lot of it. in many, many directions. i don't think love is hard to feel, i think its the easiest thing in the world, and i am constantly feeling it like a wave, it comes in rushes and then subsides.
still i feel it. there is just so much of it in my life, and its a miracle and i pray that everyone else can feel it too. because its everywhere, not just in a person, but in the things that happen around us, the thoughts we think up into dreams, and the past that looks perfect in retrospect. its like being caught up and having your heart tugged on from all surrounding angles.
i feel full and empty all in the same moment. because every wonderful moment moving on, is moving away from another perfect hour in the past.
and sometimes people, things, feelings come in only to stay for a very short moment. as blessings, or tests of our character, and then they move on and we do too. to fulfill some other purpose beyond the short fleeting moments of the present. disappear.
maybe only after these small things go can we feel the bigger things. like a pleasant dream & then waking up to discover what it really means...about who we are or aren't, and what we want or don't. maybe only after waking up can see just how far we let ourselves slip. but then we can thank God. because we can change, we can be grateful, and we can have that chance to think & try.
...if ever there was a doubt, my love she leans into me...this most assuredly counts...
