Bone-Shaking Grief

I have lived in my safe little world long enough. It's time for me to shake the gossamer of childhood from my eyes and use whatever influence I possess to keep those I care about from completely ruining their lives. No one will ever know how much I would love to keep them from experiencing heartache, sadness, sickness. But that is not in my power. Do you realize what it does to me, to see you screw your life up? I didn't think so.
