bull's eye

i could continue living like this and it'll be fine.

sure, i do have dreams for myself. i've envisioned so many versions of my future. having been through the various stages of a journey - the first few steps, struggle of the climb, satisfaction of getting to the peak, cautiously descending or tumbling down - i know it doesn't make any real difference whether it turns one way or wildly in another. i have the utmost confidence that it's going to be fine.

my happiness isn't dependent on what the future brings.

i can dance with danger because the future is so mutable - lacking any form of certainty. to put your eggs in an ethereal basket runs the risk of having it crushed if it doesn't materialize in an ideal manner. it's prudent to keep hold of them until you have a semblance of certainty.

that's why i know better to stay grounded in the here and now.

the future will sort itself out. as long as you maintain to keep doing the right things today, you will build yourself a tomorrow worth living. there really is nothing to fear. an outcome unrealized isn't a loss. cause you never had it to begin with. you never really lose the things you failed to grab.

it's only a loss when you fail to appreciate what the present brings. we will always have a perfect vision of what could have been. with the power of our own imagination, everything will be the way we want them to be. but really, how much are we really considering them with the right amount of accuracy?

accuracy isn't always a nice thing. to accurately define our world means to acknowledge that we step on shit sometimes. but to accurately define the world also means being able to see how beautiful life can be.
