Simple Mystery

Life seems so complicated at times and there are a million noises inside that mind, confusing and contradicting themselves.
We are the culprits. We complicate life for ourselves. There is such an abundance of emotions, of thoughts and of experience and actions and everything acts on us.
We keep chasing something all the time and reach a brick wall blocking our souls from rising. We have the need to feel secure. Our desires are like threads that are wound around our souls as the years go by and we are lost in them. Bound by them and trying to break free but can never see the light.
I've come across people with an obsession to possess expensive cars, branded clothes. Some people live their lives to have them. But what next!? You buy a house, a car and you are the richest man in the world. You've reached the horizon. But what next? Isn't the journey more important? That we wouldn't mind a few extra miles to reach a place if the road is by the coast and beautiful?
This heart throbbing, beautiful mystery called life needs to be unraveled through merely living. We can't run away or rush it. Or just sit there and do nothing.
And we slowly unwind the complications that we have made around ourselves. A perfect metaphor of a worm building a cocoon around itself and breaking through it after a long slumber to spread the wings into a free butterfly.
We are simple people with simple lives. The time we take to reach that realisation is a lifetime or more!
Simple has never meant easy. But difficult has always meant interesting.


Happy New year folkS! We have only one 2011 in our lives. Fly. There is nothing that can stop you from being you!
