Towards Forever

Time truly is an odd thing, ya know. As autumn approaches, and the weather begins to cool, I think of ice, and of time. Sometimes we wish we could return to the past, to an easier time, and sometimes even a happier time. Sometimes we love where we are, and want time to stand still, to never change from how it is, and sometimes we long for these times to change, for the future to come so soon.
There was once a piece of my life where Time was my worst enemy. What I wanted was in the past, my future looked horrid, and I could not stop the decay of time. But, times have changed. I have grown. I have seen. And now I am no longer trapped in those chains of time, no longer trapped in those chains of ignorance. Life is a constant growing and changing. But this is a message to those who have not come here yet, who are trapped.
In life there will always be problems, troubles. But also life is growing. We grow, we learn, we move one from the pain. Though sometimes we have pains that seem to never go away, permanent lacerations. Maybe they will not go away, but we all gain things to mask it, we get used to it, it gets a little easier to deal with. That I assure you.
You learn what is important. You learn to keep it.
And you learn to throw away what is unimportant.
