So sometimes a spark is just a spark, and then it is gone. But sometimes it catches, ignites and turns into a full blown fire. A fire that can give you comfort and warmth. A fire that you can sit in front of all night long and watch it change and grow in awe. But let's not forget the lesson we instilled in us since childhood. Don't play with fire. You can get burned.
However, I am trying not to think about the getting burned yet, even though it is there in the back of mind. I am still trying not to jump to conclsuions and head somewhere I am not even really going to. But if you don't take that risk, that first step, you won't end up anywhere except for where you have already been.
"To get somewhere you have never been, you must do something you have never done." - Mark Twain.
So here is to Mark Twain, not getting burned, and taking chances. Even though in the morning, all that is left is a pile of ashes, sometimes there is smouldering coals just waiting to be that roaring fire again.
