When What You Love Isn’t Enough

Lets start off like this… it’s not that the love itself wasn’t sufficient. But what it became was not what you expected and it left you heart broken.

Sometimes dreams do that. You build up this perfect ‘how it might be’ in your mind and suddenly your goal is reached and instead of honest hard work to climb the ladder, there are those that drop their pants to get higher than you. And you’re not willing to do that. So you’re lost. You’re confused and most of all- broken hearted about what you fell in love with and were in love with for so long. 

The journey to find a new dream isn’t always an easy one. At least not for myself.  You lose yourself. Amongst the hundreds of hobbies you could pick up, none of them spark your interest like that first, giant dream.  All you want is to feel that fire you felt before- to know that you want it so badly you’ll skip out on other activities to work your ass off to have your hands around it.  

A voice.  You speak with yours in hopes to convince yourself and others that what you’re doing is what you love.  But is it?  It gives you unbelievable joy while you’re working- but the feeling of ‘something is missing’ is omnipresent. Or perhaps it’s just that you’re afraid to work so hard for something again only to have it crushed at your feet, along with all of the heart you poured into the belief in this goal. 

So how do we get past this? A wall built up in so short of time? What we have to remember is that walls may keep out the hurt, but they also keep out all of the joy as well.  If you’ve recently been let down, create something magic with what’s left.  Try your damnedest to get a goal that sparks your interest and fire again.  You can.  You will.  These moments are the ones that make you appreciate the better memories.  Don’t let it consume you.  Rise back up and get back to it.  The sun is shining, you have a presence that needs to be seen and felt to help those around you.  Believe it.
