These days I cannot even imagine of how long I have been in this state. I have no changes to report. I asked for courage today. The feeling of strength and confidence that I made this resolution in has long since left me. A hallow yearning is what remains. Wishful thinking pollutes my mind. I am distraught. I am bold. I am human after all. Begging and pleading with my fate is just a waste of my energy. No, I must quietly and slowly coax the next day to shine its renewed light upon me. I must invite my success through the careful and consistent expectation of the goal I set out for so long ago. My footprints have stretched out across the plains of life so far away that the pacification due to the passage of time has removed any sign of my struggle to the unbeknownst in the earliest stages of my struggle. The only reality of the situation is felt in my heart, seen in my memory and heard in the urgency of my speech. The horizon ahead of me is blindly barren as far as I can see. Beyond the range of my eyes lies my dream somewhere, but as of now I have only the sun, the moon and the stars to guide me and the sky and the sand ahead of me are my only companions.

Unorthodox maybe, but I grow on you.
