Future and past

Searching… not knowing, yet searching. In this world we find our own objectives. Your parents are not there to guide you through; they are the biological reason for your existence. The rest is not yet determined but will invincibly move into the past. The ones who have a grasp of their future are instantly in grasp of their past. You can’t touch what you once could not grasp; you can’t eat a cake that you did not bite.

Overwhelmed by the possible consequences, the past over-shadows the future. How many of us have tried to let go? How many of us have succeeded? How many of us still remain in our insecurities? Even when there is no winning, it’s a battle we must fight. Hope – keeps us going. Just as well, hope leads to disappointment. To believe the sun will rise before we set, to swallow in everything you do not understand hoping eventually they will come to sense, we hold on with our eyes shut.
