What’s with everyone today?
Today. It’s not like what it was decades ago. Where everyone was more laid-back, where they had the time to smell the roses, and take delight in what nature and life had to offer. I wasn’t living that world, but I can certainly vouch for it, at least.
So here I am today. Living in today’s world where some of the most basic things in life have been forgotten. Are we letting our hearts run wild, as it would like to. Let it run without anyone restricting it, or stopping it. Or have we been molded by today’s society which is so caught up with the dog-eat dog world, so caught up in chasing after dreams that our most innate feelings are neglected.
Why are we scared today? Are we living in fear of rejection? Why are we afraid to let that heart walk that thin line. Afraid to fall? What’s the height of that fall? What’s at the other end of that crossing? Would we ever know what’s at the other end if we don’t take that first step. Fear, like shadow, will follow us throughout our lives. But we can avoid that shadow when we walk in the dark. And that’s called, walking with our heart.
Walking with your heart takes you to places where your mind can’t and never will take you. Somewhere so serene, beautiful, not by sight, but by feel. Walking blindly has a risk. You will never see those potholes or that stone jutting out, waiting to trip you. But at least, you know the end of the journey is a place where you want to be, where you will lay to rest that heart of yours for eternity. I’ll take on that journey. Till then, the stumbles and pitfalls will be worth every ounce of euphoric feeling that will make life a little sweeter.
