Endurance
Every now and then i think i'm done changing, i think i've become who i'll always be.
But i still have some growing to do. I still have so much to learn about life, about other people and most of all, about myself.
I'd like to think that i'm a wise person, a diplomatic person, a trustworthy person and therefore a fair and just person.
And perhaps i am.
But there's always more to grasp at than i initially thought, more challenges to overcome than i originally anticipated and more conflict than i care for.
Like everything in life, it would seem that it will come to me with age and with time.
Like the poet Robert Frost said:
"The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But i have promises to keep, And miles to go before i sleep, And miles to go before i sleep."
I need to take heed of what disheartens me and try not to repeat mistakes of the past. I need to keep going.
No matter how bleak the future looks. There could be a beautiful valley nestled behind the treacherous mountain, and that mountain could provide the necessary shade for those who reach the valley and need a little reprieve from the intense sun that shines ahead.
At least i am a capricorn and can take heart, if anyone can find a path accross, the sure footed mountain goat can.

A shit load of contradictions, wrapped up neatly, with a nice pretty bow.
