Say you say me!

Nothing haunts us like the things we don't say.  It can set us down paths, which lie far from where we are meant to be and can take us up hills, which are perilous to climb and which will tire us out so much, that we feel that we cannot continue.  It can take us years to get back to the path that we want to be on or should be on and yet, when we remain silent we stand the chance of enduring an even greater agony like an untold story within us.  It is for this reason that we need to speak and especially in such a way that others love to listen to you and similarly to listen in such a way that others love to speak to you.  It is better to speak and listen with passion, than to die one day from boredom.  So whether your memories are what warm you up inside, or what tear you apart, make time to express the words that fill your mind.  To be normal is just an illusion - for what is normal to the spider is chaos for the fly.  The feeling of expression is worth the risk and sometimes getting the wind knocked out of you, is the only way to remind your lungs how much they like the taste of air. Taking a breath to accomplish a single word of positivity and encouragement is like a fairy tale which comes true - not because it tells us that the dragon does exist, but rather that the dragon can be beaten.  It is not easy to have courage to constantly get up every time you are knocked down, but courage does not always roar like a lion.  Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day, that says i'l try again tomorrow.  It may feel that hell is something that you are carrying with you, but setting a path straight or making something right that clearly needs to be part of your life, is so much more important than a life of bitterness and regret.  It is true that the best people possess a feeling for beauty, the courage to take risks, the discipline to tell the truth, the capacity for sacrifice.  Ironically their virtues make them vulnerable, they are often wounded, sometimes destroyed.  So to avoid that fate be ready and steadfast and let your character, with your words become your destiny.
