Playing with fire....

I am not speaking in the literal sense of playing with fire. Although the flicker and the glow of the reddish orange flame is very inviting. You watch it dance and flicker especially if it is againist the blackness of night. It grows bigger and bigger and takes on a life all its own.

One gets the same feeling when they want and desire for something. When you first meet someone. The intensity is much more when it is something or someone that seems unattainable.

When this happens we come to a cross road. Is this burning in our belly worth what we could loose. Is what we desire better than what we have in our lives now. So much of the time the answer to that question is no.

But if only for awhile before the fire gets to hot it is nice to stand at the edge and feel the heat of the flame.
