Risk vs. Reward

The risk versus the reward.

Always a dilemma.

There are days when I soar

and there are days when I am so frightened

for my breakable little heart.

I don't know if I can take any more

I don't know if I'll have to

Risk v. Reward

I always stay

just to find out which

will win this time.

Mother's Day

So today I was trying to think of a gift for my mom for Sunday & asked my dad what he thought. His response was, "your mom actually doesn't want you to spend this Mother's Day celebrating her, she wants you & your sister to enjoy it for yourselves now." That would be super sweet and cool IF I WERE A MOTHER! But I'm not. I am waiting for the day when life is in the right place and my partner and I are ready as patiently as I can. Can we NOT make the maternal itch any worse please?? kthanks.

My external response was, "Well since Sarah is the only mother out of the 2 of us, I'll go ahead and keep celebrating mom."
