Self destruction.
You're hurting.
You're confused.
What's next? What's not?
Things are good, life is fun until you sober up and look in the mirror.
Remember how you got here.
Do you know how to turn back?
Do a 180 and guess what? That path that got you here is gone.
So you're in this place. You don't know what you want, you don't know where to go but you feel like you should.
You bounce violently between shoulda, coulda, woulda.
But it doesn't matter anymore. You can't go back, you're already on the fast track to a dramatic crash and burn.
Some days everything feels right, and the next it's all wrong.
Your mind is changing, your world is spinning so fast that no matter how fast you go you can never catch up.
It curves and spins and tilts until you cant hold on anymore.
Body aching, eyes are heavy, keep going until it ends.
The kiss of death.
"We'll sleep when we die."
"Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anybody can start today and make a new ending."
-Maria Robinson
Don't forget you're here for a purpose greater than yourself.
You're here to make a difference.
So start over.
Make your mark, leave it branded, written in wet concrete so when it dries, when you've gone, people look back and remember how you were molded and formed.
Into something with greater meaning.
Something with greater purpose.
As they walk over your mark, head down, they will see it and understand.
They will think of you.
Just like concrete.
When life got mixed up, when things got thick and life was rough, it only took a short matter of time for those things to make you strong.
Strong enough to hold you up.
Strong enough to not break under pressure.
Strong enough to hold up all of those who have walked all over you.
Maybe they will realize they are called to leave a mark or path.
To help and encourage those who follow it to not lose heart.
Remember, when life gets too hard to push through, it just means its not long until it all settles.
Don't waste a moment.
Leave your brand.
How do you want to be remembered?
