Quitting you

Why is it that just when I've forgotten about you, that I haven't thought about you in ages, that I haven't thought about how we've hurt each other, you rush back into my thoughts like you'd never even left. Just at the sound of your name. What is that?

It might not even be true, really. You might truly just not give a damn anymore or lies may have been spouted about what you said. Who knows? But I wish we would just make up our minds to either give this a solid try or just really forget about each other. 

We'd be great, you and I. I know it. Truly two kindred souls. But what we've done to each other in the past and how we've ruined each other out of spite or jealousy or nonsense may just be too much. Or is it?

To the pursuit of wonder.

"The choice to pursue a dream, at the destruction of my comfort, with the loss of safety and certainty, all for the purpose of doing something that inspires others to a fuller life of wonder and creativity and quality, to me that is a burden of responsibility worth carrying. To me, that is growing up. "
