play
Although it’s been awhile. Due to finals and life and what
not it is a new year full of new beginnings and fresh resolutions so here's to a
new post and many more in the future.
You know those moments you would give anything to rewind and
do over. Those moments that make you sick to your stomach because you chose
wrong. Those moments that you hurt the person you love most and would give
anything to take back. Or what about those moments you wish you could pause and
live in forever. The ones where you feel like the world around you could
continue on but you in your bliss could stay forever on pause. Just feeling the
moment of pure happiness. Whether your basking in the sun alone reading a book
on the first day of spring, laying in the grass watching the clouds with your
best friends, or resting your head on the love of your life hoping that the
moment could just last forever. However we constantly try to fast forward the
hard moments the ones that leave us fighting to stay afloat. We want to plan
out every step of our future but why. Why is the future so important that it
must be planned? In what aspect does that leave us to be who we are and create
a life that’s meant for us.
However we are forced to live in play, without a pause button, without a
rewind, without a fast-forward. We are forced to face the choices we make right
or wrong. We are forced to leave behind the best moments in our lives to create
new ones so that the old ones become memories. Life is on play and we have to
face it. As hard as it can be sometimes as great as it can be we are forced to
face it. So face it and create a life you never wish you had a remote for.
