Profound Thoughts

to be passive and merely exist as a shadow... to be active and come out from anonymity... or proactive, a real tangible presence...

We go through so much everyday… We encounter scenarios incessantly. Our mind continually streams an immense volume of information. Most of it we discard, an insignificant fraction we retain. This is what we remember, think and contemplate upon. But our mind can only handle so much... an outlet and an output is needed to balance our psyche or else risk a gradual degradation due to oversaturation. A constant struggle where giving up would come to mean an untimely demise…

If you wait for me then I'll come for you Although I've traveled far I always hold a place for you in my heart If you think of me If you miss me once in awhile Then I'll return to you I'll return and fill that space in your heart Remembering Your touch Your kiss Your warm embrace I'll find my way back to you If you'll be waiting If you dream of me Like I dream of you In a place that's warm and dark In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart I've longed for you And I have desired To see your face your smile To be with you wherever you are Together again It would feel so good to be In your arms Where all my journeys end If you can make a promise If it's one that you can keep I vow to come for you If you wait for me And say you'll hold A place for me I in your heart. The Promise - Tracy Chapman

When we're weary, we think we carry the weight of the world on our shoulders.  We become a magnet for negativity.  We become erratic and we lose sight of that which is essential... our belief to overcome tests of character... It will draw us more to a downward spiral. We just have to  think of the good things that happened in our lives.  It will become a rope which will pull us back on steady ground... It is the reason why we need to come up with  insightful experiences which will bring out emphatic changes in our lives... Changes which will become a source of strength... our saving glory... 

  Man is essentially good. A man may act otherwise because of an underlying reason or perhaps a clutch of circumstance. We just need to understand.  We just need to see the goodness in everything that surrounds us... no matter how small or trivial it is... no matter how difficult the situation we are in...  We just have to believe... for the goodness that we see will reflect on our being. This will inspire us to do good and be good... as a person... as one self to another...  In doing so, this will allow others to see that there is still goodness left in the world and that good deeds are not in vain...

I hurt and cry just like anybody else...  But, I can not bring myself to tears... I silently cry inside... I don't want to let anybody look at me in my moment of weakness... for I am the bastion of strength of the people who hold me dear to their hearts...  As my tears fall within, my heart hardens... Maturity... a fragile one will bleed easily... a thick coat will render it indifferent... Sometimes, we just need to let our tears out. Even if our hurts pile up over time... our hearts should still have a room to breathe...

What if you are able to catch a glimpse of your future... Would you embrace it? Would you run towards it? Would you be scared? Would you be happy? It all depends...  On the decisions that are going to be made... Whether it be guaranteed, or risky... A sure path but could be boring... A challenging life which is exciting... The pros and cons... weighing things... But it all boils down to one thing... it has to be decided upon...
