HAVE YOU EVER had an idea in your mind, one that you could not put down in words.
Tonight was the first time in a long time. And in reality I forgot how enjoyable it can be.
Sometimes just having someone around that you used to be close too can bring back so many laughs and smiles. It can it part remind you what life used to be, and remind you what your goals in life are.
Just from talking with them for a while face to face brought back my ambition, and if you know me you know that i lost that a ways back on my journey (to The Dark Tower). Know I member why I do what I do and why I want to help others so much.
Maybe by looking back, I have learned to look forward. Though there will be days that I will struggle with taking the step forward across the rough terrain called life, it is time for me to leave the trailhead of my path and start trailblazing my life. Because I want my own trail, not the rutted trail that other have taken. My trail may be marked by goals, and the signage being like my friend tonight, a mark to help set you straight when you loose track. But I need to make my own trail for my life.
My trail already has ruts that grow out of regret; however, I am learning to bridge them with the future and take a step on the slippery surfaces of the hills and valleys. Along the way I will stop to look and smell the flowers. And may the tears along the way be used to rinse and refresh my soul.
Stepping so my first footstep now will be one I remember as I go,
