Why do you look for love

In the one person who cannot give it to you?

Emotional unavailability is not something to be drawn to

You have not gone through

The pain and pressure of becoming a diamond

Only to accept someone

Who believes themselves to still be coal

Seek to Love Before You Seek to Understand

Seek to love people before you seek to understand them. Everyone is on their own private journey with an entire world inside of them that we will never fully come to know. We can go through the same experience together, but that moment will mean something entirely different to each of us. As we weave in and out of each other’s paths, people will surprise us in a million ways. Some ways will hurt us and some ways will heal us. Some ways will challenge us and some ways will change us. What if each person is just a teacher, a looking glass that mirrors to us the two wolves within? Without tension there would never be any growth. Conflict in nature is what creates islands, canyons, and supernovas that birth new worlds. So remember that when your heart cracks in your chest, it is not broken. It is letting the light in.

Between Two Worlds

We are the bridge

Between eternity and the world of time

Presence is a brief glimpse above the clouds

Where we can feel the warmth

Of the golden sun on our skin

Before returning into the fog of the mind

We walk between two worlds

Balancing the magic and the mundane

The Beginning

And so one day it happened like this. I was floating amongst an ocean of stars in timeless space. All it took was one look from Earth and she cast her line, hooking me into her orbit. Never had I seen such unparalleled beauty than in the life that dwelled within her gravitational currents. I asked if I could experience a human life. To know the feeling of a mortal heart that feels immortal in love, or the peace that washes over from being submerged in the salty sea, or the enveloping scent of a bonfire from camping beneath pine trees. I wanted to physically experience the chaotic dance of emotions that makes a human life so rich. Earth granted me my wish and asked which character I would like to play when I came in. I made up a name and many other ingredients that would create my story so that I could grow along the way. She said the price of admission was that I would experience amnesia. I would forget that I came from infinity, and instead identify with the role I play, thinking that it was me. Part of the game was participating in the mystery. A treasure hunt of following the breadcrumbs, and soft whispers of inspiration that reminded me of the endless possibilities contained within one human life.
