inferno

as i lay in my bed, with the windows open, i close my eyes and breathe in byproducts of the burning earth surrounding me. the smell is all around ... i am engulfed. it feels thick in my lungs and burns my eyes. in today's world, fire is not seen as a good thing. it is seen as a 'natural DISASTER' - a tragedy. yes, fire destroys what comes in its path... however, a different perspective: fire is necessary for growth.

there are many fires that have started in my life right now that are burning the old and making room for the new... the glorious unknown. we cannot allow for new, great things to happen to us until we have cremated all that is dead in our lives that we have refused to let go of.

looking forward to what is going to take place of those ashes... but man, it burns!
