Late thoughts…
There comes a moment in life when you reach that precipice and look down into the unknown void. Do you dare take the leap of faith? Risk failure to reach greatness? Reach up in hopes of touching an angel?
With that one step there is no turning back and you fall endlessly. You lose control so quickly. Twisting and turning trying to hold on to what little you can. Struggling to know up from down, left from right, front from back, inside from out and ever continuing to fall.
Falling.
Falling on your face in defeat.
Falling.
Falling in pure physical lust.
Falling.
Falling to your knees in sadness.
Falling.
Falling ever passionately in love.
Falling.

Sometimes in the live we have to dare and launch ourself in the unknown principally when we are young like you , Shy .

Sometimes we must stand at the edge and meet our fears! @-}-}–
I love Blade Runner!
I think it is odd how we say “falling” for when emotions take over us. I guess covered in love doesn’t really have the same ring to it.

Blade Runner – Who’se the bad guy, who’se the good guy… And are the baddies really bad?…
The main baddy, played by Rutger Hauer is Dutch by the way. Hah!…
DOn’t try to run before you’ve mastered walking, but don’t stay on your arse either!…
On the other hand… Crawling also moves you forwards!…
I have not reached that point yet. Except maybe with Simba.
WHy do we have to always fall in love..why can’t we rise and shine?
(Love the new layout)

Falling or flying, what is the difference?
We always have to fall back to the earth.
