On Inspiration

You light up my life. Sadly, your lighting of my life exposed my location to the authorities I was hiding from.

You make me feel so young. As it turns out, you made me feel young enough to feel I could play basketball like I used to. I couldn’t, and reinjured my ACL irreparably.

You are the wind beneath my wings. Unfortunately, your gust of vertical wind sent me hurtling into a high speed wind current. I lost control of my plane, and crashed directly into a grain silo.

You inspire me to do things. And for that I love you.

But your inspiration provides me with false hopes of my abilities, high expectations I can’t fulfill, and revived dreams that should remain dead. And for that…I really, really hate you, you jackass.

You make me love. You make me hate. And that’s inspiring.

Did you like this Thought? Sure did. No, I did not.
