Dear YouDear You,

If there's one thing I've learned, it's that it's easy to hold in contempt someone whom one cares for dearly. It's easy to assign blame, brew anger, and lose oneself to grudges. It's not so easy, once fallen into this, to turn back.

However, life has taught me that for every story, there are two sides, and nobody is innocent. So, I must turn back, however difficult that might be, because I have played a part in this, and to continue to have this conflict inside of me will only send me down a path of destruction. I've been running away from my own heart and salvation, and now this is the time to stop fleeing and face this. Whether

Despite his stare, I was completely at ease; somehow, I knew he was just one of those people I could trust.

"I don't understand...," He finally said, quietly

The EndI look down at the little glowing orb nestled in the palms of my hand. It is light as air, and as I draw it close it begins to shine brightly. It is the happiest sight I have ever seen and in my heart I feel light and happy. There is nothing more beautiful and true.

I can feel his eyes on my back. I lift my gaze and see the ruins of my city, but with the sky so blue and the sun so bright. Amidst the air I can smell the ash, but taste the ocean, and feel the life. I know now that everything will be okay. The light becomes stronger yet.
