This is a place to come and look into ourselves. Here I take that first cleansing breath of the day and greet the world.

The Message.....
"When you can't run anymore, you crawl...
and when you can't do that
You find someone... to carry you."
"It's funny. We went to war never
looking to come back, but it's the
real world I couldn't survive. You
two carried me through that war. Now
I need you to carry me just a little
bit further. If you can..."
Its funny, I just saw this Episode of Firefly again. Its one of my favorites. I've never asked anyone to carry me. Its not in my nature. I'm more like an animal in that aspect I suppose. When I can't run or walk...when I can't stand on my own I crawl off to die.
Its easy to fall into the rut of how hard own own lives are....how much we are Broken. I've ignored my own cracks by focusing on others but sooner or later the wall comes down and if there is too much emotional weight.....the whole house comes with it. I've never asked to be carried.....doubt I ever will. It would be nice to share that burden though....even if it means sharing theirs as well..... two oxen can carry 4 times the load....funny, huh?

My favorite episode ever. Its that episode in fact that makes me want to watch the box set again. Not to mention the other awesome episodes lol.
Was a great message though. It hit hard and stuck. Most people want to blaze through life and shoulder everything, but really... if that was the intention, we'd be here alone. We have friends and loved ones all around us, some that we might have even overlooked.
In any case, you ever need anything im there.
