I've been here before
4 years ago
I’m working on making a big change in my life.
I’ve been this close before, but I’ve never stuck with the decision. I always find a reason to back out.
What I realized recently is that … it’s been damn painful to get where I am right now. Where I am right now HURTS, and the weeks/months/years leading up to it has hurt. So if I quit now, what do I have? A promise - a true, hard knowledge - that I will hurt myself again by having to live through this pain again.
What’s over there on the other side? I’m living with the pain of being dropped in boiling oil.
Maybe the pain on the other side worse.
But it won’t be being burned in boiling oil.
