Where I'm Going

"I can't shake the demons on my tail, and I can't lose the shadows that infiltrate my mind."
-Me


I know I'm not the only out there who has these questions, these doubts, these suspicions, about everything in life exploring my very own existence. I'm not here to say how to go about this, I'm only here to state what I believe.

I stand in a muddle of many different factors that make up one life. My existence is that of one more heart beating, one more set of eyes looking, one more pair of lungs to breathe the air; to share the air without consequence. One of billions. That means that there are billions of minds asking the same question. We are all throwing these questions in the air hoping gravity will bring them down with an answer attached. It's not that simple. That's what is hard to grasp, this concept of difficulty, and it's the learning curve that makes us unique.

I say embrace it, love it, nurture this with great care. Treat this like a relationship, don't overwhelm it, but love it with all your heart, and show it your appreciation: explore the lack of boundaries, and come up with your own response.

"Where there is questioning, there is exploring, and where there is learning, there is wisdom."
-Me

The construct of human nature is that of finding a purpose, the reason we are here, why we do what we do. We can't avoid this. But what if it's more than a purpose; rather, a choice. What if there really is no infrastructure, socially and psychologically which we can't overcome and will determine our outcome, our life. Humans adapt. We have this amazing ability to overcome environments, social status, and barriers that are set up. There's a reason the few people who succeed, do. This is they see that NOTHING is impossible. It's more than accomplishment, it's more than purpose, it's more than existence...It's Human.
