The Abyss~

I think we stand on this cliff, looking down into the abyss, a black hole of the mistakes we have made, the hearts we have hurt and the paths we should have taken. We look down into the pits of the pain we have felt, the anger we have endured, the aches in our hearts. We stress over the journeys we didn't take, the moments we passed on and the roads less traveled because we look into this lonely space below and realize that as much as we have done, we have left undone! We forget to lift our heads and stop focusing on what we think is dead, instead we stand there, numb to what's still to come, still to be. We have a life in front of our feet, so the black hole may still be there, but at no point do you have to feed the depths below, stop waiting for the world to slow, love your life, let it all go, take the chances, write the wrongs, move forward. It is up to us to believe in ourselves, our adventures and what we still have within us, so don't look down upon the cliffs with the black holes of yesterday, focus on today. Love deeply, apologize to those that may or may not deserve it, because you are bigger than that black weight holding you down, take the lead and believe in yourself as you challenge the beautiful unknowns of tomorrow!
