simulacrum of life

Wednesday, August 23, 2006

i know i'll do the right thing, if the right thing is revealed

i saunter through life
careless and free of worries
mostly harming none
at times treading on hearts
never knowing what i want

and then...
an epiphany
clear it seems
imbued with purpose
i march forward

i see the goal
the path to it
not easy
but like the sirens' song
it calls

and i walk on...


Morpheus: It is sometimes a mistake to climb; it is always a mistake never even to make the attempt. If you do not climb, you will not fall. This is true. But is it that bad to fail, that hard to fall?

Morpheus: Sometimes you wake, and sometimes, yes, you die. But there is a third alternative.

Todd: And sometimes, when you fall, you learn to fly.

- neil gaiman, fear of falling

sometimes if you've already fallen, and fallen hard and gotten hurt, it's a bit difficult to find the energy within to climb another mountain again knowing the same thing could happen.

and perhaps it's not a matter of not wanting to, but being unable to.
