Everything Hurts

Have you had one of those terrible moments where for a split second everything in your body hurts? It starts right around the middle of your chest and spreads deep within your soul, right where feelings seem to make their home. Quickly it jolts out to your fingers and toes. Then, all of the sudden your eyes fill up with tears and you knees buckle? Ever had of those moments? I have. I'm noticing more and more that the only people who wield that kind of power over you are the people who have every single bit of you. The kind of people who know you're inside more than they know your outside. The kind of people that are on your mind at that time of night when you stop moving, and begin to look back to see how far you've come today; The kind of people who you weigh and measure everything by and the people that you feel a personal responsibility for. It makes me wonder that if broken, messed up people can affect me in way that brings my life screeching to a halt...what kind of impact can a perfect man make with that same kind of power? Am I ready for that kind of life changing relationship? I hope so, because here I go...
