What did I have to show for it he asked what did I gain I looked at him puzzled for a second I didn't seem to quite understand what he meant for sure he looked at me as if I had earned some sort of trophy or a medal at least a financial reward must have been in store for all the troubles in my life and then I smiled the way I do when I see my own truth and I replied here I am empty handed nearing the end of my life my heart has been broken so many times it consists of nothing more than softness all its hardness and resistance fell away with each hardship there was to endure and isn't that exactly how I arrived with empty hands and a heart perfectly soft so it could love and that's how I want to leave empty handed not a grudge or a grief I am clinging to a heart so soft it will simply love until its last beat is squeezed out of it that is more than I ever knew to ask for when my life first began to leave here just the way I came ~•~ a beautiful milieu Image Nik https://www.instagram.com/nicoladavisonreed/
