“Have you ever . . .” seems like a completely appropriate way to start off this little blog of mine, however, for the sake of spite and being different, I think I’ll start it off another way.
There are things in life, friends, that will seem real. They’ll feel real. They’ll smell real. They’ll taste real. Heck, they’ll even sound real. Be forewarned, however, that your definition of real has nothing to do with what is, in fact, reality.
What I’m saying is that seasons come and go. And with all the transition comes things that may seem right, may even “fit” like a glove, may seem real. But, there are times when one must say goodbye to those things, whatever they may be and however real they may seem.
Life is full of smoke and mirrors. And when all that nonsense is taken away, then you find what is truly real. When the masquerade is over, the face paint has been taken off, and the carnival has closed down shop, reality begins to set in as the lights, one by one, are turned off. And all that’s left is darkness and the pale moonlight.
