intensity

intensity is kinda extreme right? like when something is so cold it burns you....

in both the horrendous & joyous intense of moments, there is something that you take away & carry with you forever.  it can make you or break you.  it doesn't always feel like a choice but it is.  i am fortunate to have experienced both and come out the other side, yes with scars but you do learn to love those scars. trust me!


sometimes i think i am too intense but those moments they are pure, raw, honest and alive.  i wouldn't trade them for the world. it took me a long time to see that those moments make you who you are.  i do wonder why people avoid those overwhelming feelings of both utter complete bliss and gut wrenching pain.  i guess it is easier to exist in a void, in the middle and not take the risk.  i am sure you have heard people say that they don't want to do something they have always dreamt of that would give them pure joy because the come down would be too much?  that thought pattern is so disheartening and engulfed in the murkiest of greys.

when in the intense moment i think about the fine line between hate vs love (or things that fall into those categories). like this picture, are they about to kill each other or are they barking in excitement? 

you decide...
