Sometimes you hear things that make you think, and often it's not in context to what was intended. These things come from inadvertent eavesdropping, the TV, books and other assorted sources.
At times they're purpose is simple, and help you articulate something you were always inherently aware of, and remains immanent to you.
Often they're enlightening, and even though painfully so, help you align yourself better to that state of alcohol deprivation called reality.
But, they're at their fiercest worst when they make you question the very definition of your own self. We've all thought of things to come, imagined things and people and cars( :P explicit mention necessary ) , wondered whether the same things will make us tick, how long fires will burn inside outside and the third side.
SO, getting to the point :
"Imagine a future moment in your life where all your dreams come true. You know, it's the greatest moment of your life and you get to experience it with one person. Who's standing next to you?"
Been a couple of years since I heard this the second time...While I thought of multiple scenarios that defined the dream-come-true state, something occurred to me today, that had never realized before, that in all possible scenarios, independent of accomplishments, in that fraction of time where I'm bored even off bliss.....I STAND ALONE.
I STAND ALONE.
Didn't go to college today.... spend a lot of time thinking. Didn't sleep. Took a disprin and slept. Still STAND ALONE.
Fret not over my despondency though, for when I'm writing this I have a smile on my face, so clearly I thought this one through and didn't run from it.
I'll write about that soon .... but take a moment and think, and reflect and redefine, it's kinda cool :P :)
