perspective my love. perspective. out of all of this the most valuable thing you have gained is another perspective on life.

"the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence." you said that in the beginning, and now you can say it in the end too. so what if that is really what was the case? you are better off in the long run. there are so many things that this cost you. and you let it cost you those things, because well, when you love somebody that is what you do, you compromise, you love. right? because sometimes making someone else happy is just that worth it.

but in the end he was right, it just wasn't going to work, because you are too different. and that is ok. it is ok to be different, but it isn't ok to try and change someone that doesnt want to be changed. you can sacrifice only so much of yourself before compromise is the only answer, and before you are taking away from yourself. two people should coexist happily, despite arguments, but the arguments shouldnt be ground shaking. you should agree on the fundamentals. if you dont have a strong foundation to place a house on, then i'm afraid you are in for a world of tears and hurt.

when it came down to the fundamentals, we didnt disagree all the time, we just were on different planes, different time periods. i was flying into the future, and you were living in the moment.

its time to slow down, without you. but that is ok. this bird hasn't flown solo in a long time. and there is no better time than today to start soaring. i think i'll start with writing. its a rough start, but its only getting better.
