Maybe

In these past couple of weeks, I have surprised myself.


I had never known that I was so capable. After the loss of so much, I would’ve expected to crumble into a grieving rubble of sorrow.


Instead, I was resilient. I handled each adversity with my head high and optimism higher. I picked myself up with wisdom I didn’t know I had and strength I did. I tried my best and shrugged when things didn’t work out the way I wanted to. I actually had fun instead of dreading each inevitable moment.


Not only did I allow change to happen, I embraced him with welcoming and warm arms!


I flowed with the rhythm of life and danced to her beat instead of trying to swipe her drumsticks out of her hands and force my own version of what I think is right.

What no longer serves me has left and now I have space for so much more!


As I sit here, with the jasmine incense lit and flowing ever so gracefully, a bowl of fresh papaya and contentment bursting in every fibre of my being,


I begin to wonder,

Maybe existing isn’t some random and pointless event,

Maybe it’s a crazy adventure,

Or an epic story,

Or an extremely detailed simulation,

But maybe, just maybe,

It really doesn’t matter

it feels so serene reading this. I feel like commenting disrupts it. in a way I think nothing really matters and that it shouldn't matter that it doesn't matter either. I'm glad life is flowing through you as you embrace it. I know you'll continue to live by breathing the world in with every fibre of you.
