Worth Noting
It’s Worth It
We’re just bodies, aren’t we? Lost souls filled with bad habits and good intentions wrapped like Christmas gifts, in skin. Flesh and bones wearing the proof of life, like a new tattoo. Given away, for the promise of love.
Exchanging bits and pieces, for a chance of becoming whole with another. Someone, who, like us, is growing, trying and failing to realize our full potential and purpose. Becoming who we were always meant to be.
Making mistakes and amends, telling secrets and lies, making promises we could never keep, for the chance of finding and giving happiness.
Willing to do it over and over again for the sake of an unfiltered heart

"Exchanging bits and pieces, for a chance of becoming whole with another." Does it ever really work in the end? Yet, we keep going. Well done, my friend.
Bringing together the ying and yang of people and trying to understand each other. Good work.
Beautifully expressed! I felt this one.
