Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
At once terrifying and exquisite, it is surrender to the unknown, releasing our inhibitions and dismantling well-developed defenses, pushing past all self-repression to embrace a new piece of knowledge and the possibility of hope renewed and faith restored.
Those individuals who inspire and invoke such radical action beyond our comfort zone with sincere kindness and absence of ulterior motive or passive-aggressive dominance, all for the purpose of gently pressing us into a new world of brighter possibilities, are the muses of modern times.
They're our blood. They're our friends. They have their needs and problems, but they're our family of choice, blood or no.
We love them and stand by them, even when they fail us...
Even when they fail themselves.
We cannot imagine our world, our lives, our souls without them.
Life will take many paths, some which cross more frequently than others.
To all my pretties:
When the shit hits the fan and you feel pressed beyond bearing, you can always come home.
This door is always open; here, you will never be forgotten.
