Rock Story


*

In the end,
nothing is inherently worth reaching for.

But,
reaching for nothing
assures that you'll attain it.

Even a rock has a story;
it is not completely dead.

Do you want to live
your life
like a rock?

Reaching for something,
anything,
gives that thing value.

It's the reaching
 that makes life
worth the time
it takes
for living.

Do you want
to live?

Look
for some
little ledge
or
crevasse
to reach
out to.

Better still,
stretch
out
those
wings
