They Don’t Understand

It’s ok if they don’t understand.  It’s understandable.  Understandable that they don’t get it.  They don’t grasp it.  They can’t wrap their mind around it.  You are walking down a different path.  You are walking down the less-traveled path.  The difficult path.  You have been created and called to live a different life.  You have chosen to live this life.  Each day, you continue to choose this life.  This is who you are.  This is who you want to be.  You can walk away from this life at any time.  You can quit.  You can choose to live another life, someone else’s life.  You can choose another path.  But you know deep within your soul, you can’t, you won’t, and you honestly don’t want to.  This less-traveled path you are walking down, the difficult path you have chosen to take, it drives you.  It burns within you.  It separates you.  It gives you meaning.  Purpose.  Focus.  Although at times this life is lonely, and at times exhausting, it is worth it.  It will be worth it.  Eventually, people will see.  People will be encouraged.  People will follow.  Eventually, your time will come to an end.  You will pass the baton to another.  The example you have set, will continue.   Today, you continue on.  Quietly, humbly, aggressively.  Your light is shining brightly.
