LIFE


Life is a joy. It makes our spirit grow and we shine our brightest colors, we fill our lives with music and then we fall in love and we try to make it all work, we try with all our might, we keep a smile on our faces and welcome all the bounties that sometimes life offers us. 

But life also hurts, and when it does we crumble down and then we just pick our pieces and put ourselves back together again. We are just broken pieces glued together walking here and there and yet, we manage to smile. We say hello and answer that we are ok, we just walk and continue moving on from everyday battles. Neverending battles. Is that we have left?

Life is a gift, but I just wish I wasn't given it. Selfishness and cowardice perhaps come into play, but what can we say when those tears and heartaches seem not to go away? Again, we pick up whatever is left and somehow move on, we rebel against it all trying not to show our scars as we weather the storm, we grow, we move on.

Life is beautiful. It is a beautiful mess, it is a beautiful chaos that we try constantly to make better through our actions, through who we are and somehow it is worth it. It is contradicting, it is painful but oh my, when we see that beautiful blue sky up high, those mountains, or how flowers perfume the valley... that hits differently, and we feel small and filled with joy and tranquility. Life is that contradicting. We are contradicting, we are souls, we are nature, it is just that we went in a different direction, I feel we were not supposed to be this way.

THE VOICE (of faith and evil) - written by jrqc (philosophical literature - fiction)

  THE VOICE (of faith and evil) "I believe the world itself can blind you with its banal sweet-honey taste, making you forget who you truly are. It's so easy to fall for it without even realizing about it. Sometimes I so hate it!" Thought he while staring at the gloomy morning that somehow felt as if carrying a burden of pessimism on its shoulders.  "I'd say that this world itself makes your spirit bloom in its rightful and truthful nature" a faint voice whispered, hollowed and distant. "Besides, what would you be if it wasn't for this world that you somehow have conquered and shaped to your own convenience?. This world, as you put it, has not left you out, furthermore it has complied to your wishes and whims". The soft tone of the whispering voice added. "There you are wrong! We know perfectly well that I am what I am through my God-given free will and that it is through HIS help that I have lived and experienced things out of HIS mercy s...

ROAD TO SELF-BETTERMENT - based on the basic principle of Stoicsm - written by jrqc

There is always time for introspection, there is always something to be fixed here and there, it is timeless and aids in our self-discovery and feeling manifestations within ourselves. Introspection holds the key to unveiling aspects within ourselves that require more attention and improvement.  I truthfully believe it is absolutely important to engage in this process as it is not only valuable but essential for personal growth. This process can enable us to delve in the depths of our sentiments and to comprehend ourselves better. At its core, introspection empower us to differentiate feeling that nurture our well-being and those who undermine it. Equally, it offers the opportunity to  discern the cultivation of emotional intelligence allowing us to mitigate and reduce the negative ones. However, this latter endeavor seems at times quite cumbersome, since it is basically a testament of how intricate our human nature and the capacity of self-control is. We are not perfect ...

NO MORE

  NO MORE I have forgotten so many things, Just a bunch of broken memories is all I have as I try hard to collect them, And they run through my fingers like water, as if escaping. Recue me, I implored, though the noose gets tighter and tighter without a hope. I look at my reflection in a broken mirror, And that reflection waves goodbye while my bloodshot eyes cry, Pushing me down into despair. From the past I try to collect my old self, this one being already broken by pain, And I stare at the stars though I cannot reach them, So I tighten the noose around, I failed to belong, and my home is long gone. Watch me as I slowly fall with broken wings, I cannot fly anymore, The castle crumbles down alongside with all I had, The steps adorned with flowers and glasses of wine are no more. Watch me as I cease, as I come to an existence halt and all around fades away.
