So much of life is spent trying to prove something...It begins in childhood and never seems to end.  Trying to prove were bigger or stronger, better or richer or smarter. Trying to prove that we deserves someones love, but feeling secretly that we dont. So much of life is spent in fear. from the simple dares of childhood to the complex ones of the adult. Fear of failure, fear of losing a job or ending a relationship, fear of marriage or divorce, fear of sickness or aging, fear of love or death. so much of life is spent in isolation. From the lonely daydreams of a child to the unuttered secrets of an adult. isolated in our dreams, in our thoughts, in the midst of a crowd, isolated isolated especially in our anxieties and hurt and private rages. So much of life is spent in guilt. from the first sadness in a parents eye to the tears of a lover. guilt over working to hard or not hard enough, guilt over loving too much or not enough, guilt over our children that love us and those who dont. so much of life is spent in an effort to be loved. We beg for it from infancy. We struggle to please everyone to anyonr who seems important.we do it all our lives. Sucess becomes the measure of our worth. Even the simplist failure can mean that we are not really lovable...
