Strange

How strange it seems
to be so controlled by our fears.
To let all rationality go because some things just freak you out so bad.

How strange it seems
that I live so much of my life afraid to face my fears.
Afraid of losing control.

How strange it seems
that when there's nothing to be afraid of,
there's always something to be afraid of.

How strange it seems
that television went from a way to escape life,
into something meant to scare us to death.

How strange it seems
that we are constantly being told to be gripped by fear,
or anger,
or perfection
-- rather than real growth,
or true happiness,
or even just remembering
how lucky we are to be here.

How strange is seems
that hope isn't any less crazy than fear 
when you really think about it.

How strange is seems
that Murphy's Law seems to ruin everyone's life,
even the people we think have it all.

How strange it seems
to put so much effort into something so unsure.
Something so fragile and beautiful.
Something that makes you feel alive.

How strange it seems
that I'm not afraid to hope in something.
I'm not afraid, tho I have little control over all the factors involved.

How strange it seems
to finally be ready to never look back.
To never regret.
To know that it somehow brought me to you.

How strange it seems
that we have the same fears,
tho in our minds we both know there couldn't possibly be anyone else.

How strange it seems to be happy. Not perfect, just happy :)
