| What happens when living becomes more of a chore than something worth enjoyment? What happens when living gets boring and tedious? If I stopped for a day would anyone notice? Just stop talking, stop communicating, just stop... would anyone even notice? If I cut school one day and went to a hospital, found an empty room, put on some patient clothes and just lay in that room, how long would it take for anyone to find me? A day, three days, a week, a month, maybe a lifetime? Would they even come after me? Would you come looking?
Well Cy was been feeling down with the weather even though I do love the rain. Cy's been wondering about, life, love, and dreams. I like to think love is a strong feeling that acts like a glue to keep us all together. Then again, Cy has weird thoughts like that. I actually did some research and here is what I came to understand...
The first time you see someone and it's like love at first sight. The non verbal moment between you and them. The special click... all thanks to pheromones, nature's special ingredient that creates that moment. Raw lust is caused by high levels of testosterone. Sweaty palms, punding heart, and infatuation, all caused by higher than normal levels of norepinephrine. And the awesome high of love, caused by a rush of phenylethylamine and dopamine. Then for "true love" that is caused by the stabilization of serotonin and oxytocin. And if everything just doesn't work out between the two, you can blame it on decresing levels of vasopressin.
It seems love is not quite the romantic thing it seems in fairy tales and Disney movies. If this is all a dream, please wake me up...if not, just kill me.

Kinda dark huh? Well that's life for you. So much drama happening around me. It almost makes me feel like this was all plotted, as if life itself was just a big play. Can't really complain about anything though, I mean, life has it's ups and downs but...that's kinda what life is about. Mystery, desire, excitement, and even disappointment. I don't know about you, but for me, I say that just makes life all the more exciting to live. It's like the ultimate reality show and you're the star. Plus it's interactive too, how much more real can you get.
Life is way too short to be doing the same thing over and over and over each day. It should be a new adventure as the morning sun rises and the end of a chapter as the day ends. Life is your story, it is what you make it. Every life a story, a story so vast, so uncomprehensible, so unprdictable, it would take a lifetime to tell. If your life was a story, would it be worth telling? Would mine be worth listening to?
Recently it seems as if I'm trying to pull together all the loose ends. I mean it's good to know that people can depend on you, but it gets tiring. Then I wonder why. Why try to control things that cannot be controlled? I can accept that one day I must die, but there's still the hesitance in saying that. You know it's inevitable and yet you can never really prepare for it. Maybe that is my flaw. The weakness of humans is that we cannot prepare for the unevitable death.
In the end, a man's life it but a small ripple in the river of time. One can only shed a tear at the end of life, and then...move on. It's true what they say that it's easier to forgive an enemy than a friend. Your enemies are expected to cause you pain so you become callous to their actions. But friends make you open up, and then when you are crossed, it hurts even more. I guess that's a trade off you have to make. Is it worth it all?
Sometimes I wish I could just fast forward time to see if it's really worth it all. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. I'll take it a day at a time. Won't you join me? |
