This Is The Place Where My Mind Is Free

The paths of our lives will take us places that we cannot even begin to predict tonight. Will I stay here or will I end up on a different continent? Will I succeed or will I end up in a vicious circle of meaningless days? Will I finally feel at home? The days pass and more and more uncertainty grows. My swift fall from grace has me questioning how much longer will I stay restrained. Have you ever looked at someone and known that they will never see eye to eye with you? Have you ever wanted something so desperately that you ignore logic and the world around you? Day after day passes and you see your vision of something warp, mutate, disintegrate right through your hands. Be it peace, love, or even in certain aspects spirituality. Are you scared that you won’t approve of who you become? At times I am. I feel that darkness within me, the capacity to become what I hate. We all feel we have the.power to shape our futures but, how many of us are restricted to certain decisions because of our environment, our culture, our financial stability. Time is powerful, time is dangerous. It can erode our very being into something that is nothing more than a hollow shell of our former selves. But it can also be our launching pad, our investment, our future. How will we know what time will do to us? Can you be certain that you are protected? In the short time I’ve experienced life I’ve seen the world change in such a fickle way, as if it were synced with the tides. We humans, we an arrogant and shortsighted species, though it’s worth noting we are still young. But do we have time? Time, such an important and encompassing aspect of our existence. All we can do is make the most of it and hope. Hope that our future will be what we want or more importantly, at least what we need. I cannot forsee anything but I do hope that I find what I seek.
