I've never understood the purpose of staring at something blank until a thought pops into your head. What could possibly be on that wall that gives you thought? Absolutely NOTHING. Maybe that's the beauty of it. A blank wall doesn't stand for failure or a lack of creativity ... no ... the blank wall stands for opportunity.

I thought about him today. And as devious as I think of him, I remember the twinkle in his eyes. The twinkle I loved so much, and the same twinkle that was present when I knew, at that exact moment, that our opportunity was a mere failure. I remember that twinkle so vividly, and I remember the words he had once said to me. His name WAS Eternity ...

Eternity had left; his twinkle was carried with him, along with broken up pieces of my heart that had been shattered yet again. I knew he was soon to return, he always did. His opportunity was gone. No sense in staring at a blank wall when it is certain that no change will occur. And that was my life ... I thought my "eternity" was gone.
