KNOWING WHEN.
If there's anything we learn as we grow, it's our own limitations. Seems rather anti-growth to even say that.. but true. To tell yourself you can't physically can't run the mile under 4 minutes or you can't drink a bottle of alcohol and function properly can be a healthy thing. To know "when" you need to change your train of thought, even more important.

In my job and my life in general, I've been successfull with doing more with less. It's fulfulling to know you can. At work, fixing broken things works, but you can't fix people without their consent. You can't influence someone, unless they want it. The spirit of mutual growth and change must be there... and if that's your path, then you must know "when", and step out of denial. For me, I must try to know "when" today.

To self... keep hope alive.
Is it sad? Absolutely. At first it's like giving up hope, and I never want to be that guy. Today, I have to ponder my own personal hope. I invest so much in others and selflessly get lost in that hope for others that I forget about my own hope.

What is my hope? To love with all my being, and to be loved back consistently, without fail. To share and create a grand product of two individuals. As time passes and I share my hope again with another... sometimes it feels like rhetoric, but I still need to believe in this hope.

Adore them all
With so much wickedness in this world. I want to hold dear those that I've shared so much with. To keep connections alive, and not let them lay dormant or go sour. There's a reason that these "connections" in our life happen, and shouldn't be discounted. Rather, we should value them and love them with a balanced heart more and more with each passing day.

These people are threads and patches in your personal fabric, value them. If you've ever loved, don't forget how.... and know "when" to keep loving everyone you can. These special people have become a part of you. So love them.

It's not about knowing when to stop loving. It's about knowing when to change your course.

peace-
