It's time to look forward.
I see in that future children and greatness. But what motivates me? A desire to be acknowledged? Loved? Remembered? I wonder what selfish desires plague my feeble and wretched heart.
I crave a link to the future, through my children, precipitated by a bond with my wife, she whom I love above all others. Wherein lies God? Does He approve of my plans? Can I know if His presence permeates the fibers and passion of my vision?
I just want to know I matter.
It's hard to remain strong in the face of your own weaknesses as they tear down your defenses and you are forced to acknowledge the limits of your mind and body and spirit.
It's hard to remind yourself you are loved when you feel so down trodden.
Bah, maybe I exaggerate and I give into simpering self pity. Regardless, it changes not the path I have chosen. I will endure and remain myself, but that wish I hope may only be endured as long as necessary.
