I had reached a turning point. It really was more of a jumping off place. Where was I to go now? I didn’t know. The answer was not readily available to me. However diligently I searched the answer eluded me.

I made decisions up to that point in my life based on what I came to regard a friend. I won’t tell you what kind of friend it is, or what it’s name is because that would take something away from the story itself. I will tell you that it had become a power in my life. In the beginning a power that was most enjoyable. In the end a power that was all consuming.

Then I had to switch powers. The new one that I chose was much like the other in the beginning. It gave me all sorts of things of wonder in my life. The only difference between the power now and the power then, is that this one doesn’t take. It only gives.

When I give, it gives more. When I stop giving, it stops giving.

I choose to give today.
