Endless Possibilities


"Freedom is actually a bigger game than power. Power is about what you can control. Freedom is about what you can unleash."
- Harriet Rubin



Some people find a sense of place in the childhood home they grew up in or the city they aspire to one day live in.
But my place is not exactly like that, and that is because my place is space.
It is my place not because of where it is or what it contains, but because of what it represents. 
It represents openness and limitless possibilities. 
I can look to the sky at night and see space and just envision everything I want. 
It is a vast and boundless place that reminds me that I can do and achieve anything. 
It emphasizes that my life and my actions are completely in my control. 
Space is also reliable. 
It stays the same. 
As sure as the sun comes up, it also goes down, darkening the sky and awakening space. 
It does not matter where I am, space is always there.
It is the constant reminder that I am in control of my destiny and that my future is mine to take hold of.
Space is my place because of how I feel when I see it.
It is my place because of what it encourages me to do.
That is why space is my place. 
My place of endless possibilities.
