Why is it in love that in order to get ahead we have to take a few steps backwards? You see I came up with this crazy yet ingenious theory ( or it is at least to me).... so here goes nothing. It's almost like blowing glass. Glassblowing as it is defined is forming glass while its in a molten and semi-liquid state... To reach this molten state it must first be put into an extremely hot fire. The fire then turns the glass into a semi-liquid state, which is when the glassblower comes into play. At precisely the right time the glassblower must remove the glass from the fire and begin to form it. In the end with what started as a plain piece of glass, which might have had flaws or impurities, turns out to be a beautiful work of art. You see, you can look at is as love being that piece of glass, with many flaws or impurities. To rid our selves of these we must first face trials, hardships, good days, bad days, laughs, smiles, tears, joy, sadness and etc. These trials and hurdles are what break us down to vulnerabilty, but right when we think we can't take it any more and the burdens of life begind to wear us out.. we come out of that fire and start to become shaped or molded. In the end it's a beautiful masterpiece... and you realize, all the things you went through only shape who you are as a person or people. It all seems worth it, yet at the time you wanted nothing more than to be out of them. Weird I know..
