It All Seemed So Limitless

From atop the shoulders of my pride, in the days before the day, it all seemed so limitless. The horizon without end was brilliant blue and cloudless. Flat ground dotted with gentle hills were impediments to no one. You can dream, can't you?

Yes. You can dream. You can dream as far as belief in the possibility of all things can take you. It was when I quit believing in happily ever after that the dream of possibility faded to the doubt of probable.

I can't ride on pride or ego for long.   To walk with humility requires acceptance of what is and is not. In acceptance, the view is limited. There are limits and the horizon is within reach. Clouds turn from blue to gray. It all goes away in the end. There are no happy endings. Life is with limits.
