Tell 'Em Anything You Want To

If you have reviewed any of my blogs, you realize my views on various facets of adult life and learning. Never, until recently, have I ever been scared or afraid of what may lie ahead in my own life. I never had to worry much about stability and my future, until now. Life's uncertainties can be quite complex and perplexing.

I think as a 30 something (back side of 30 actually) we may look at things differently than we used to. Meaning, we have changed over a period of time...what once completely fulfilled us, now seems incomplete. An analogy of this, looking at a glass that once you believed was half full... is now is half empty.

Truth. That's what it is. Looking at something dead on, face to face and deciding if that's where you want to be. Or, looking at something head on and making a decision that that is no longer where you want to be...not for one more minute. Promises broken. Faith no more. Hope is something that you can no longer cling to, for it no longer exists like you once knew it to be.

Here's the kicker, you knew it long ago...years ago perhaps, that this was not right and ignored your own intuition for the thought of the greater good. Hoping on a whim that maybe, just maybe, things would take a turn for the better. But the day never arrived and you know whole heartily, it will not .You finally, after this passage of time, acknowledge it and have moved on and feeling all the better for it. You finally realize that your loyalty and steadfast love is not quite enough to make it "right." That's all you have ever wanted was right...but there is no degree of  normalcy, stability or promise. It is stagnant and it has been that way for longer than you wish to admit. What once you believed in with every fiber or yourself, you now know is unbelievable. That's the truth....this one is for my very best friend and for me as well. We don't tell 'em all the truth, but we know exactly where the truth in the purest form lies.
