My Lanterns and Candles

Say at least 3 things tonight that you are grateful for before you go to bed and dream of them before you sleep. If you can’t even think of that then you are in serious trouble. We are all blessed, to be able to write, read to have internet connection! There are so many things that I am grateful for only because I choose to see the light at the end of the tunnel and not focus on the darkness that is overwhelming.

But how do you make the one you love see all things beautiful when they don’t reciprocate or even try? Does it mean that they do not even appreciate your concern or presence or simply can’t see the little sparks that makes life worthwhile. What do we do? We cannot change the one we love, neither can we change them.

So the light at the end of the tunnel starts to fade.....do we choose to love life or choose to love.

I choose to love life. I have lit my path with candles and have hung bright lanterns up the whole way through! I will still try to make the one I love see my lanterns and candles....I will try, but I simply refuse to let the dark engulf me again.

Consumed by it I was before and I bear a mark on my body to remind me to never visit that place again. I simply cannot. I will light the dark, I will paint the night with colours never before seen to man and I will love....
