As you assess your current situation in life, multiple memories run past your mind. Like a clear vision of the past events, of the happy memories, the adventure that led it all to this day.
I think this is what they all say. To remember the reason that brought you here.
In our current lives, our menial problems, we have forgotten the sweet taste of memories. The outburst of adventures, road trips, the rush of endorphins you felt when you experience something together in the past. The agony of plans going awry but knowing fully well that this is the price you pay for being 'adventurous'.
I took a leap of faith four years ago that changed the course of my life forever. Today, as I sit back and remember my thought process at that time, I don't regret any of it. It has made me who I am and deep down, this is what I always wanted.
What has changed is the situation and its impact it now has on my emotional being. People never change, what changes is their attitude to every situation life throws at them. I am still the adventure lover, the thrill seeker, trying to fill a gaping hole in my being. But the impact of changes around me is too much to take. I am vulnerable to the point of breaking. Henceforth, I have decided to give in. Sometimes, being a driftwood works in your favour. Your conscious is free from the burden of taking the next step. I always believed in concepts like fate and destiny. Today, I believe a person's choices also add on to the course life takes for him but it is still largely pre-designed.
When I said driftwood, it doesn't mean I lose accountability of my actions and words. It just means that I wont resist change vehemently. Like a director visualizes his film and works towards realizing it, I will work towards realizing my life and then sit back in the end to await the final product. The final product that will be made out of countless moments I witness everyday. And in the end, I know I will be satisfied with whatever I see for we are always what we are meant to be.
