Many dings can bog a man.....but affairs of d heart is d oni
ding dat wil eva b worthy 4 a man 2 cry 4....
It doesn't interest me what you do
for a living.
I want to know what you ache for,
and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing.
It doesn't interest me how old you are.
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love,
for your dreams, for the adventure of being alive.
It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon.
I want to know if you have touched the center of your own
sorrow,
if you have been opened by life's betrayals
or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further
pain!
I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own,
without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it.
