I don't want you to save me

Some people spend their whole lives looking up instead of looking forward.

I've spent the sum of my life so far looking forward. Always looking forward and never looking up.

I have all these plans, but I have no dreams left.

Sometimes I think I was born a cynic. Just once, I'd like to be able to feel some hope for my future.

I don't want you to save me. What if you did, you'd succeed and then get bored and leave...I'd be back at square one, and that's such a bad place to begin.

All I know is that for me, looking up and looking forward seem to have intertwined somewhere along the way. If I don't find some reason up ahead to keep moving then I won't. I guess I have to go with what one of my favorite tv characters once said: move ahead or risk being left behind.
It's why I occasionally kick myself in the butt or have someone else do it ;)
