The sun sets on another day…
I watched the sky spray more rain, but there, for only a moment, there it was, in my rearview mirror, a spray of color across a gray sky, giving hope to all those who saw it.
Have you ever been lost in a song? I find often that I get lost in a song or a movie or my writing or someone else’s. The only way to get lost in these is to feel deeply and understand the depth of what you’re feeling. We all feel deeply, but I’m not sure everyone understands the depth of what they feel.
Tonight I heard a song from Judas and the Lion that hit deep. I have said it many times but here was a song that expressed my feelings about my past. I will set us a link to the song if you’re interested but suffice it to say that the song allows the singer to grow as they realize that even in the depth of their own heartache they know love because they only want the best for the person that hurt them.
I’ve gone through some difficult times in my life. I have felt passion that some people only dream of, and felt pain both physical and mental that I hope no one ever feels. As I listen to this song I remembered the times that I hurt but hope that others might find the happiness they deserve.
As I listen to this in the massive arena I can only Imagine that there are others who realize that sometimes it’s okay to hurt so that others may find their way. It’s not about being a martyr or doing something selfless for some ridiculous reason but instead it is realizing that if you love someone, if you really love someone, you should want them to be happy above all other things. And if that happiness is without you, so be it.
So as the sun sets on another day, I hope you have found that person who will do whatever it takes to show you their love. And I hope that they are so into you that no one else exists and no one else can exist. I hope you find the person that does not Place limitations upon your relationship but instead understands that self-sacrifice isn’t a sacrifice when you’re with someone you care about. Mostly I hope that you love and you feel that love each and every day, with words that are not just words, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and live deeply…
