Soft in the Middle

by Shelby Eileen

Just because the risk is important and difficult, it doesn’t convince the stars to align. Perhaps they had other hearts to draw together at the time you reached out to them. Perhaps if you ask them again somewhere down the line, they won’t be so busy. Perhaps your questions and answers will be completely different. The stars will always be there, but you should move forward.

studying sunshine so as to become as lovely as its light
