I … spent my wild young life always looking ahead to the brightness so much so that I couldn’t see the bounty I held - the joy, the blessings family … love now - I spend most time looking back because of how much I’ve lost to the darkness … so much so that I’m losing sight of all that I have and all that STILL … could be.
