Enjoying the ride...

As he jumps down the waterfall he knows that wherever he may land, he shall survive. What makes the fall so magnificent is the simple fact that he has internalized the most inherent human attribute - that he is fleeting, that he will never be here again, and that one day, he shall be forgotten. There is so much meaning in the realisation that there is no meaning, that there is no greater power watching over him. There are only moments that feel like seconds, and once he reaches the end of his journey, those fractions of time will evaporate. Yet there is no sadness in this truth. There is no hurt or agony or depression, for it is clear as day that there can be no other way. We are given a life, just so that it can be taken away - and that is completely fine, it's completely fine with him.


I will try not to obsess about us or to over-think every single detail. I will instead trust and believe - perhaps such thoughts will surely lead me to lands unknown. I will whisper softly in your ear and make sure that you know, that you are certain without traces of doubt, that I am here, and that above all else, I love you. Every part of you. Even the dusty corners I wish I could sweep away. I love because it is my inherent nature to do so. To connect and form bonds without really understanding why. It is my belief that our story has chapters consisting of volumes I cannot quite grasp, yet shall make my knees tremble and eyes shut. I am going to find a way to make this feeling last forever, for it to entangle my soul, and once and for all prove, that I am greater than the sum of my parts. Come oblivion or serenity, nothing will stop me now.
