Flames

Have you ever stood there, looking forward at a ring of fire knowing you have to literally blaze through it?  You're terrified of what lies before you, but you can't turn back because the alternative is just as terrifying.  The only thing keeping you going is knowing that what you're about to do is right.  You have no clue what will happen once you step through the fire, you're only praying that you don't melt or explode in the sudden, extreme heat.  You don't know how long the "ring of fire" is, but you must press on.

Welcome to our lives at this very moment.
