Patience is hard, sometimes unbearable.
I cannot think like that.
I must have patience.
Things come to those who wait, right?
How do know you waited long enough before your hope becomes an unrealistic hope?
I have always lived in a daydream state to be happy.
I don't want that anymore.
I want to be happy enough to be grounded.
Is that so terrible?
To some it will be.
I shouldn't have to live my life making others happy.
This is MY life.
In 50 years from now I do not want to be somebody I am not.
If I really think about it no body lives their life to make me happy.
So why should I?
Why is it so hard for me to live for me?
I know why.
I will lose almost everything.
Everything except myself.
I know if I live for me I will be truly happy, something I have never been.
I am not sure I am ready to lose the people I love.
If only their love was enough to keep them around.
Sadly life is not that easy.
I need to make a choice.

Life and choices in it are never easy. Losing everything to gain happiness is one of the hardest choices humans face, so hard, few ever end up choosing what they wish they had and later in life regret not taking those risks. Best of luck in deciding what is right for you.
