the price of dreams

Following your heart is a difficult business and any true dream carries a heavy price. The energy that you spend from within can easily burn you out. These are just long days, and long nights. All you can do is have faith because everyone around you simply fears. They fear for your success and they fear for your failure. They fear your dreams will leave them behind and they fear your dreams will change what they loved. Our hearts are lonely places where our self doubt coexists in a delicate balance with our inner strength.

Following your dreams means risking being a failure to those who support you. You can only ask forgiveness from those who might think you have forgotten them along the way. Success is built on the selfless love of the quiet inspirations that surround you. Fear and love are the foundations of our humanity and are the two things that wake us each day.

Forgive us if we can not pause. We must, we must, we must. We just try to hold on and hope that we are still in one piece when we get there.
