Meeting for the First Time...

Always wondered what it would be like, meeting for the first time. For a long time I've waited for that day and then thought it would never come to be. Had finally accepted it. Was trying to move on. Then that day arrived, it caught me by surprise. Nervous, apprehensive, shaking and shy. Trying to hide how vulnerable I was. Saw you and everything melted away. Seemed like everything was as it should be. Everything was right in the world. I was content. To finally be able to hold you...something I can never explain. For a few short hours I was happy.

Morning came and you had to go. I had to say goodbye. No regrets. None whatsoever. Wanted more time but grateful for the little we had, for what we had shared. Burned in my memory, imprinted in my heart. Thank you for the memory, thank you for the moment. Be safe, be happy.

Time To Take Back My Life...

It suddenly dawned on me that I've become a bore. I used to be so much fun but now I'm as dull as a door knob. There was a time that my world centered on just a specific person (by choice) and lately my life is all about work. I do not regret the decisions I had made nor the path my life has taken but it's about time I take control. It's about time I make time for me. For fun. For spontaneity. For harmony and balance. To find my center. To start living life instead of just letting it pass me by without even a glance at its direction.

I made a pact with one of my best friends that we'll start taking control over our lives. Bring back the fun-loving selves we once were. Now is the time. Happiness waits for no one and we have to seize it while we still can. To grab it with both hands and hold on with all our might. To find the happiness we so richly deserve may it be in love, work or anything else in between. Now is the time. This is the moment. Time to embrace life once more.
