Have You Ever

Have you ever found something in your life that you didn't want to lose, but strayed away from it? Like leaving someone you loved so much because you couldn't deal with all the drama. Or letting your passion for dance, music, or theatre just die and gave up on it when you came so far. What's the point? If you really love something, stick with it. It doesn't matter what that thing is, as long as it wont kill you or cause you to lose your way like drugs and alcohol or whatever. Cutting yourself doesn't really help all that much either. I should know, it seems to cause more pain than take away. We all have gone through this, where we just give up and feel like there's nothing left to fight for, totally not realizing that there is so much more to the world than we'd like to know.

We are faced with challanges, tests if you want to call it. Some might say it'd be a "Test of God". When others would say it's life. However it says a lot about who we are when we face these challenges. If you love something so much and one issue comes and keeps piling up and no one talks about it and when it get's too much and you leave. Just walk away. What happens to you after that? If you truely love someone, or if you love to dance, sing, act, play sports, then why not fight to stick with it when it gets too rough?

I guess where I'm really getting at is, life is one big test. A test of who we are and what we are willing to fight for. You never know what you got till it's gone. Sometimes if you're lucky you might get another shot at it. That one thing, may it be a person or activity, that once filled the gap, or space in your heart that isn't worth losing or giving up on. So...why do we do it? Why do we let that part of us die when we know it isn't supposed  to? Is it because we're only human and we all do stuff we end up regretting sooner or later...or because that's just the way life is?
