不回家的小孩

 

Things will never be the same. Why return? Short lived moments which will eventually be gone.  Why ponder? The game is no longer in your control. Why hesitate? All is predestine and can’t be changed.

 

Accept the fact and live with it.  It is not a matter of crying now, it is whether the weighing of choices and choosing the path that one will take.  How can one weigh when everything seems equally important?  How can one choose when the path ahead clouded by uncertainty?  A jerk once said: ‘in life we have to sacrifice some things’.  Well, but which one?

 

All of them that brought one to this very stage.  Each contributing in different ways.  Shaping and moulding the being within. Who should be forgone?  Which should be abandoned?

 

Of the many questions that arise.  It seems that something was missed out: the reshaping of destiny.  Understand this as our forefathers have understood.  Finally it is clear.  There is only a way forward and there is no turning back.  With this in mind, the restrictions imposed by the past have been alleviated.  Leaving a path with only physical constraints.

 

To this it was understood that for every moment in life, every encounter, every happening, every passing, every ordeal… Cherished it, archived it.  For this will be one’s most precious treasure: memory.  There is no need to re-live it or hang unto it, just savour the moments in memory.  There is a greater path to be forged ahead.

 

Traversing the fabric of time, it was found that years are just a fleeting moment.  Weeks and days just pass without warning.  One fourth of time has probably passed.  What will the second fourth holds?  How long more?  All are left for speculation.

 

Recalling the past year.  Each face met, each friend made, each brother sworn, each sister pampered, each family love…  Is it all in vain or are they precious memories?  Looking back, there are indeed moments worth remembering.  Whereby times of hardship were bear together, moments of pleasure were enjoyed together.  Now one remember, the food shared, the care given, the story told, the games played, attention given… 

 

Why were this overlooked?  It was recalled that dissatisfaction too took its spot.  This probably blinded the appreciation.  Now that it is clear once more, rid of the deceit of negativity.  One is able to truly appreciate those passed moments.  A good deed and happy memory should be carved on to a rock where it shall be eternalized.  While sourness and moments of discontent should be written on sand where passing wind of time will erase it from existence.

 

With the courage to press on, it is only now that one is looking forward for what that lies ahead.  Pondering what will the near future has installed.  The second fourth journey begins.
