Reality 1 Pink Elephant 0

Just finished watching Empire of the Sun and it was an great end to a good day. It's a story of dreams unfulfilled due to an interuption by reality and how you adapt to what's really going on around you. It's funny that was a theme for a good friend of mine earlier today. He was the guy who had the issue with the Pink Elephant. Today he had a springboard moment and faced the issue and won. He understood that his decision to ignore it stifled his next move in life. Not only did he have this huge weight, he had inexplicably chained himself to it out of a need to maintain connected to an ideal. Closer inspection of his own motives led him to resent the delay the situation was causing in where he wanted to be. There were a couple options on how to handle this, but ultimately he chose the best one for him. Complete seperation was his escape and I am happy that he finally wants the same joy and love in his life that he wants for us.

That's all for now, but anyone who reads this is encouraged to really look at where they are and make sure there are no elephants in their shadow. If you find one...Aim for the head.
