1. Illusions

    We have discovered what we want and have in life and yet always yearning for that something so far out of reach because it offers us a little bit of sense of chasing and something to thrive for. When we were younger, many told us to reach for the stars, to believe it’s all fair in life as long as we’re true to ourselves..but so many things left unsaid just because they expect us to live through and discover the little missing pieces and put all back together, to see the whole picture for the first time…to realize the mistakes that we make, and the things we said … some can’t be undone. We all have an illusion that being far away and being somebody else will help us through each day, yes, it’s true. We have to create a fantasy, a bubble to keep us from drowning in the misery that thrusts upon us, but reality is now, and fantasy is forever a fantasy…the little things that not meant to hurt, not meant to deceive, but sometimes..all it takes just a tiny grain of sand to tip the scale..so how much is too much? After all said and done, tired and worn out chasing after an illusion, a fantasy..we forgot…we traded in the valuable reality to an illusion and now…the moment is gone. Some live their life for a better day, some live for other people, and for once…I live for myself, just once…being selfish and wanted to be whole. There was never a right time for this, there was no bright glowing warning sign when I walk down this path, but I know it’s a lonely road..each step I make is for myself. I have no excuse, no shame for being who am I. The world around me keeps turning, and the people can keep walking on by…I might not be where I should be at in life but in my state of mind, I know exactly where I should be and that…is enough for me. « Song Playing: Crimes - Damien Rice »
