Holding on

We live in world that moves at its own crazy pace. It doesn’t wait for the slow to catch up, or for the wounded to heal. It runs forward, not allowing us a chance to sit for a moment and look back. In such a world we are taught not to get too attached to places, not to get too fond of people. Sometimes however just like little children, we simply decide not to listen. We form bonds… strong firm bonds ones that are not easy to break. We start sharing parts of our own time with others, creating memories. We start allowing other things other people to mean something to us.

So when the time comes to leave, to move ahead with the world, we can’t help wanting to hold on, if only for a little longer. There is a weight on the heart at the thought of separation that refuses to lift. The word goodbye looses meaning cause no matter how many times you say it you are just not ready to simply let go.

Forgotten Yesterdays

Its quite weird how you forget the good times you had yesterday the moment you seem to have an interesting tomorrow to look forward to. It’s funny how easily you forget the importance of someone in your life, how you are more than ready to have them replaced without much of a second thought. The times shared together the laughter, the tears, the good times the bad all get pushed to a far end of the brain and the memories turn fuzzy and dim. A bond once considered sacred turns fragile and brittle. A friendship once considered Golden turns to a dull depressing brown.

              Its only when you get a chance to relive a part of your yesterday even for a little while do you realise how much you are actually missing. I had a chance to relive my yesterdays for a little while today. I had a chance to salvage those bonds on the brink of collapse I had a chance to make my yesterdays a part of my tomorrow.

             

Maybe William Wordsworth is right !!

They say live each moment as if it were your last right!! What does that mean exactly?? Grab every opportunity that comes your way so you don’t miss out on something special? I tried that I really did and guess what it DOESN’T WORK. I have realised recently that I have been sooo busy grabbing all those Stupid God forsaken so called ‘opportunities’ that pass by, that I haven’t had a proper chance to just simply live “my life.” I mean come on I can’t even remember the last time I just sat by myself and did nothing, the last time I just had a chance to drift into a daydream of nothingness. Every time something ends something new has to begin. Time seems to pass by soo fast it’s not funny any more. You are taught the importance of prioritization that something important has to always come before something else you prefer. Sacrifice becomes your new life mantra and the end result is frustration.

So I think its ok to miss that one opening, it is ok to skip that one thing you think is SOO important, it is ok to take some time out from your life and just LIVE!!
