things get eazyer the older you get sometimes you need to take a step back and look at how much of a fool we have been to really enjoy what we have or have had and look ahead for whats yet to come

VIEW FROM A HILL

I am not yet quite over it.
I am lying down on top of it.
Surveying behind me a wasteland
Of dried-up promise.
While the lights below twinkle
With dull mocking uncertainty.
There isn't much left to look forward to,
And the looking forward of the past has been belied.

Letting go. Everyone talks about it like it's the easiest thing. Unfurl your fingers one by one until your hand is open. But my hand has been clenched into a fist for three years now; it's frozen shut.

Forgiveness is the one gift you don't give to others. Rather, it is the gift you give yourself, so you can finally be free.

Sometimes, I think one should only live in the present. The past is only a heavy burden to carry with you. And yet… it’s so hard to let them go… to forget… to move ahead…

bearing yourself down with harsh words and thoughts just darken the heart and spoil the soul
