Waiting
is Painful
“Do
not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swamps
of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your
soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been
able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists.. it is real.. it is
possible.. it's yours.”
