It seems to me that people are afraid of living outside of the small worlds that they build for themselves. It seems to me that I am sometimes afraid of this as well. I think its really too bad though, its really kind of disappointing.
I have begun to venture out and try new things, i have been helping others and doing things and making art and falling in love with the good man before my eyes...letting the bad one fade away. These are good things, these are positive changes that please me. I cut my hair and started reading the memoir of an adventurous woman. What more can I do? Ahhhh yessss I can pick a profession and go to school!! That would be ideal sir...simply perfect.
why isnt it ok to not know what one wants, but instead to just live life and let things come and go...pass over your naked mind as the waves of time so frequently do? i can tell you why! Because people are afraid of not understanding what comes next, fear. And from this taught fear we judge people and say "this person is successful, he knows what he wants and goes out and gets it!". that is great and admirable and all, but isnt it even harder to just take life as it comes and make everyday so totally unknown that life is the mystery that it was meant to be? Maybe that is a childish fancy. Maybe i am a childish woman who wants to live in color and heat.
