i'll love you to the moon and back

Dreams are always crushing when they don't come true. But it's the simple dreams that are often the most painful because they seem so personal, so reasonable, so attainable. You're always close enough to touch, but never quite close enough to hold and it's enough to break your heart.

After careful consideration and many sleepless nights, here's what i've decided. There's no such thing as a grown-up. We move out, we move away from our families. But the basic insecurities, the fears and all the old wounds just grow up with us. Just when you think life has forced to truly become an adult, your mother says something like that. We get bigger, taller, older. But for the most part, we're still a bunch of kids, running around the playground, trying desperately to fit in.

Reality of fear: You're not scared of the dark; you're scared of what's in it. You're not afraid of heights; you're afraid of falling. You're not afraid of the people around you; you're afraid of rejection. You're not afraid to love; you're just afraid of not being loved back. You're not afraid to let go; you're just afraid of accepting the fact it's gone. You're not afraid to let go; you're afraid of getting hurt for the same reason.
