Predicament
Posted on: September 17, 2014
Is it wrong to yearn to remain naive forever? Is it wrong to clutch at the strands of fantasy that leaves one pining for more? Is it wrong to feel one’s soul crash at the end of a tale? I want to live like this forever. In a dream land. Surrounded by all the people I love. Doing the things I love. I want time to stand still. I want to tell to time “I’m happy now. Please, stay this way for a little while longer.”
Oh I don’t want to grow old and serious. I don’t want to talk about the weather and politics and be responsible. I want to be carefree like a bird that’s just spread it’s wings. I don’t want to feel the disappointment of failure or weep over the loss of a loved one. Ignorantly blissful, I want to live this way.
Smiling at small things, laughing at the lesser things in life. Enjoying the normal things I have with me. Yearning for the finer but never needing it. Ah!
I really don’t know the answer.

All I want is to give the best to my family. Really. I want them to have the best. Experience the best. Live the best.
Is it selfish? What about contentment?
I sure as hell am content. Pardon the harsh language, I really am. What I’m discontent about is my family. I really want them to have the best.
Someone reading this somewhere in the distant expanse of the earth would wonder if the writer’s family is really poor or some sorts. False. I think my life is pretty great.
I acknowledge how lucky I am. Yet I want the world. It must be my youth talking.
Invincible. That’s how we all feel at some point of our lives right? That age has long gone. I know or at least have an idea of what the world is like. Yet I still yearn.
Do any of you yearn? For discovery. Euphoria. Exultation. More.
More and more.
Turns out that I’m not that content. Perhaps it’ll all start with a little hard work.
Perhaps the lazy me who sits in front of her laptop typing will find an answer.
To my readers. Your dreams aren’t silly. Let them shine. I know it sounds cheesy.
But believe. Please do. It can REALLY REALLY happen if you just long for it hard enough.
Perhaps not matters regarding unrequited final love or wishes to murder (that I strongly disapprove ;)) but still.
I think even us normal, common human beings (who am I to define the normal?) can shine. Stronger. Brighter.
This isn’t encouragement, I truly believe it.
This moment. Right now. Maybe the craze will die. But these words won’t.
