petal by petal, this game we play with ourselves. trying to control the feelings of someone else. we tug in hopes of drowning out the fear of the unknown. that fifty percent chance of rejection and failure. we desperately plead with the cosmos to give us what we THINK we want. instead of appreciating what we are feeling and giving to someone else... it always comes back to whether or not we are getting anything out of it.
oopsy.

never saw it this way. reading this, i think you might just be dead on.
what is with our obsession with control? i mean, i get it. but i also get that the losing control, the letting go is probably the key to happiness. so why are we grasping at the wishes and the dreams so hard that they run away screaming? i say it, i preach it..the "it is what it is" and the "let it be"...but sometimes i wonder if i live it.
i think that living it is a process, spirit. ebb and flow. no one lives one way -- absolute -- all the time.
its making those little decisions... those baby steps... one at a time... that's what defines the overall picture.
i know that i could stand to trust the universe a bit more with those little things, and maybe the bigger ones might fall into place.
