Focus

I've run, chased and tried to hold on.

I've given it time and space.

The question is what have I tried to hold onto? 

The perfect picture? The future I've always dreamed about? 

Dreaming endless dreams, energy into empty hopes and

Letting my imagination get the better of me.

I put too much into a potential future and lost sight of now.

I thought that's what I wanted, I thought I knew. 

Focusing so hard on one goal often blinds you to a better alternative. It's funny how set we all get. Sometimes I think we are so focused on getting our way that we stop thinking about the reality of it all. Letting go of the past is hard, finding a way to move on is difficult but evaluating the current situation is necessary. Don't be afraid to shatter an old dream to make room for a new one.
