"It's always darkest before the dawn."

It's pretty dark as it is - but not dark enough yet. It will take awhile before dawn comes. I can tell exactly when that will be: right after all hope is gone. I'm not there yet but in a way I wish I was - I wish I could simply take the bitter pill and be done with it. There's no fun in sliding down because there are no surprises at the bottom. But when you go up...when you go up even the sky is not the limit.
