Still Trying To Get It Right.

For many years, I've walked here half asleep. I believed that in order to function, I must compromise the truth for the demands of reality. I don't think anyone should compromise who they are. Just like no one should be prevented from having mad, passionate ideas and love as long as the intentions are pure. Those who restrain their emotion get sick in their heart and in the head. I have gotten sick in the heart and in the head... I lost grasp of the very simple fact that we are built by our relationships, never our titles, never our possessions. We are are made from the tops of our heads to the tips of our toes, from our souls to our bodies, on the idea of happiness. It's everything that we need and everything that we search for, the reason we exist.

So here I go... out on a limb.. my reasoning is really no reason at all. I suppose only that sometimes we have to take huge risks in order to make grand changes to result in true happiness. I don't want to walk 1/2 asleep or be sick in the head and in the heart. I want to have a purpose, so I put all my cards on the table then throw them in the wind. Everything I've worked for until this point, I let drift away.. and all I can hope is that, if I fall, I fall with grace, and a great big smile on my face. I will hold no hands, nor follow no direction other than the instinct in my heart... I will hears songs in my ears and see what needs to be seen... and I will walk tall.. there's a point in life when you get tired of chasing everyone and trying to fix everything for everyone else... and it's not that I'm giving up... it's that Im realizing.. that you don't need things and drama, we just need love and courage.

In a very random string of websites and browsing, I stumbled upon this and it is a perfect collection of the thoughts and feelings in my head the past year or so. I loved it.
