“No matter where you’re at, there you are.”

No matter how I wish things were different, it is what it is. I told myself I was done with trying to unlock doors that won’t open. I do my best to accept things that simply can’t change, and that everything isn’t always going to go my way. I try to maintain that for the sake of my humility, and let’s be honest - sanity. Expectations have always been my ultimate kryptonite. If only the reassuring sense of reason in my brain could appease my heart. Maybe if I were more daring, more brave, less cautious… but I’m not, neither are you, and that’s exactly where we are. We’re at an impasse, and I’m too proud to be the one to bridge the gap, but at the same time, I’m struggling to remain content. Always close, but no cigar.
