just ahead.



i went to see someone.

just the other day.

about my... future.

and at the end of our time together she looked at me and said, you have a beautiful life ahead of you.

and never have more comforting words been spoken.

a beautiful life.

she didn't say successful, or happy. contented or lucky.

but beautiful.

and that was just the word i needed to hear.

OF COURSE you have a beautiful future ahead! i think your life sounds beautiful right now (from what i've read on your blog), because of the person that you are through all of it.

i've commented before, so you probably know of my obsession with your writing, and how much i love your blog. i left a little something for you over on my blog :)
