Sarah's Life

Foundation Stones

I have noticed recently that everyone has people that anchor them to thier reality. Friends, family, whatever, they are always there for you to let you know who you are. They are open with you, they tell you when you are being an ass, and they don't let you get away with anything. These people may fade from your life for a while, but they always return, and they never really leave your heart.

I'm lucky in that I have 4 Foundation Stones. They are people who keep me rooted in (semi-)reality, and that see through my attempts to keep people away. Two of them are my "sisters". I have theorized that the three of us were meant to be born as sisters, but the gods screwed up. They keep me humble, as I do them, and they are there for me when I feel like no one will listen. One is an old old friend. He and I have had our issues, but luckly we have recently found each other again. The last is someone who, though I didn't realize it, has been a foundation stone of mine since we met 2 and a half years ago. I have recently realized how important he is to me, and I yell at myself all the time for not seeing it earlier.

Foundation Stones are important. They keep you tied down to reality when you feel like there is nothing else to keep you going. They keep the turbulence of the world, which so many people get lost in, from carrying you away. They are people that catch you when you fall, and lift you back up.

So here it is - Thank you to all of my Foundation Stones - You know who you are.
