I've sat back and grown far too comfortable in what I've become. I have wallowed in my own self pity. I have drowned myself in a million tears that should not have been shed. I've taken every loss and gain to the soul and let it amount to nothing. I have sat on my ass far too long when I know that my purpose is not being fulfilled. With my losses, I must always begin anew. With every pain and ache that I feel, it must push me past my limit to grow to be a stronger person. I have been brought up to walk a path that was laid at the beginning of time. Every teaching, all the gospel, the different beliefs and religions have all guided me to this point. I have never been afraid of what is to come, nor will I ever be. I seek to start anew. I want to bring forth generations that my God will be proud to see as His remnant. I've lost too much without gain. I have no gain because I don't move forward. Now, I'm forced within myself to take that step towards my new beginning.
