Floating
January 19, 2007
Life is not evenly distributed. It has its different states and phases. There are times when nothing seems to happen. That’s when you seem to have all the time in the world. When you can contemplate on all the mysteries of the universe. When you can savour all emotions. When you can seem to feel the blood coursing through your veins. When you notice how tiny your pores are. Sometimes this state borders on boredom. I usually call it my comfort zone. When you seem to be in some kind of a bubble, where the outside world is muted out. When you peacefully float where the wind carries you.
But then suddenly, comes the flood. The deluge of problems. When things seems to happen all at the same time. When you get your hands full and you got more than you can handle. When you don’t know what to do first. When everything becomes an intricate balancing act. When you don’t seem to be in control of things. When you just try very hard to stay afloat against the turbulent water and wait where the tide brings you.

i think most people would like to be in the second phase, coz they think being busy or having their hands full of activities would somehow increase their value as a person… but on the other hand… being on the first phase is much needed, it’s for us to recharge and gather our senses for another second phase to hit us… i’m kind of in the first phase these days, how abt u?
nice one raine!

@carey:

@abaniko:
Dr. Seuss got it right! and i thought he was just all about the cat in the hat and rhymes
@niknok:
glad you agreed
hey raine. this floating for me carries a scary emotion, even panic. i’d rather have my feet firmly on the ground. hmmm… i wonder if this is why i’ve never ever ridden a roller coaster… 
@Blogie:
so you’re pretty much in control of things then?amen to you. never ridden a roller coaster?ever…mmmm even on a dare?
Instant is good, no seizing the moment is sad.
