That's all I ever hoped to do. Is my life complete now? Am I inextra innings? Is everything from here on out less weighty because I already won the big game? Can I be lax with my values and have everyone still just as excited that I'm here?
(I'm really glad that you're able to glean so much from what I'm putting out. All I've ever wanted was to coax writing out of others. Thank you for being a part of that.)
sounds like the hope virus has spread to you, now.
yes, I am here to confirm your inquiry -- your Life is complete, you've won the big game. Now, what are You going to do?
yet nothing is less weighty as a result, the gravity of victory weighs down on the soul and one of two things result... satisfaction and retirement, or feeling spurred on to greatness. you Cannot lose what you have already gained in spirit... so are you content? (i don't think so :D)
you Can be lax with your values, tho I don't recommend it from personal experience... tho it does make for an interesting reexploration of the truest Self.
I will tell you this: nothing ever leaves for good.
I know, from somewhere deep at the core of me, that everything you encounter in your life will hang on to you by a thread (however small) and trail behind you as you run forward through space.
Its the sort of fact that should be reassuring and terrifying at the same time.
Its the sort of fact that "love" never really was for me, I'm afraid.
But that's life.
And the trick, I think, is to repeat to yourself, over and over: "that's life" "that's life" "that's life" and hope that someday you'll believe it.
