What if everything you believed turned out to be a myth? I mean truly shaken to the core. In life we face obstacles, but we always have a fall back on any numerous thing. God, our families, our friends, some of us turn to food, others turn to drugs, but we all believe in something.
What could be so terrible to destroy our very belief system? Complete and total devastation? Our very grip on reality shifting to the left 6 inches? No. Something so simple as a stranger saying hello can cause an epiphany, a full explosion, only fully vibrant in color. Disbelief and wonder, leading to forms of satisfaction and enrage. A simple word so lonely, without a fears embrace. The things we think we thought we knew are thrown right in our face. Disaster strikes a heart’s renown, as our communications break down. Our eyes alight and children frown as we circle up and down. Over and over the people flee, from one vista to the sea. Tomorrow shouts to destiny, “Stop running and turn to me.” Everywhere a sparrow flew, showed a people proud and true. This is the end there is no more, but up till now there was a store. So let me start where stories end. Do you happen to remember where last we left off? It was a time of fear and freedom won. Where a knight had just begun, to chase his sorrows all around, with the loss of his princess crown. She had fallen, to grace of a remorseful kind. His name was Stink and he reeked of wine. “History flows as time moves on.” We forget then again about Stan Shin Sabim, who showed us through a victory fresh won, that mystery unfolds and nothing gets done. The body lay down near his feet, where his heart had kept it’s beat. Now sure as the wind hits the moon with its sand, it was Stan. Poor old Stan. The sky would never look the same, the breeze from the beach had kept it’s fame. And the heat is on. And then there was this time at Disneyland...
– The beauty of life is how random it is. You never know exactly what is going to happen. You could walk out your front door right now and BAM! Hit by a car. Or you could step out, the sun shining, birds chirping at your ear. You look down, and “Oh, hey. Is that a winning lotto ticket?” Sure, it sounds outrageous, but everyday is filled with amazing, and secret things. Look for the answer, and ensure you are not just questioning. – Timothy Ralston
You consistently inspire me to not only stay on the path I'm on but to open my eyes even wider. The beauty of life is utterly random and still so mathematically complete in it's chaotic twists and turns. I love your way with words.
