There is an excruciating realness in seeing your whole life in front of you… everything you have ever wanted, all of the things that could be… you see the version of your life that means not settling. It’s so close you have touched it. You’ve seen it with your own eyes and touched it with your own hands. You’ve lived it – for only a few brief moments, but you’ve soaked into your skin a glow that is your life’s perfect match.

But, the glow fades. It’s a rollercoaster. It’s unpredictable. It’s not certain. It’s an exhaustive trek… to where? Maybe nowhere. Maybe to the best place you have ever imagined. You see, that’s part of the gamble when you find that perfect fit… there is a chance you will only be privy to what could be. But, there’s the chance that someday the timing of your life and the life you know you are destined for come together to change everything.

So, until then… you wait. You work. You think. You persevere. You pray to God that you have another fiber to endure. You breathe. And, hope. For even if it is lost forever… oh, how lucky you were to have it for even just a moment.
