I take comfort in the old adage: "It's just human nature." Why? Because periodically I find myself losing hope, confidence, trust in what I am pursuing...although I do try to shake it off quickly, sometimes it's tough. But then I'm given an important reminder that it doesn't have to be MY human nature to think like this and I have a right to my own happiness doing what I want to do with my life. Oh Universe...how I love Thee.
But Maggie, what if you did have the power, the reach, and the glory? What if you were given dominion over all things? And what if eternity lay before you, brimming with love, friends, and laughter? Yet still, one day, in all your radiance, bubbling over with giddy excitement, you tripped, fell, and got hurt - really hurt. Would you give up on all of your dreams? Would you hate yourself? Would you forget life's magic and promise? Or would you shrug it off, look ahead, and exclaim that it's "just a flesh wound"?
Touché, The Universe
xoxo, Maggie
