Essay #1: A Yearning ![]() Today is just one of the humdrum days I am cursed to live. Today is like no other days of my history. A history concocted by somebody else. A history abound of judgments and fallacies. A history that lacks actualization. This is the course of my history: godforsaken, pitiful, and somber. A history that will never under my mandate. A history that will never be mine.
Today is the same as yesterday and the yesterdays of my yesteryears. I am walking in an obscure path – blindfolded—leading somewhere haphazard for I have surrendered my fate to those vouched happiness.
I obey but am not secured. I believe but I do not understand. I know how but I do not know why. I hear yet I ignore. I am liberated by thoughts but I have no freedom of will. I talk but I do not express. I answer but I do not question. I pursue their dreams and not mine. I am allowed to live but am forbidden to be alive. I found the walls but not the bridges. I am judged and not understood. I know the world but not myself. I am what they could have been but not who I am blessed to be. I think but do not feel. I apologize but am not apologized to. I always give sincerely but I meagerly receive sincerity. I was never warned but often threatened. I smile but am not happy. I win but am not victorious. I breathe but I really do not exist.
Where is the light in this dark world of ego-centered, pride-prejudiced world? Where am I going? I reckon this dilemma will never end. But if this is to cease someday, what would I have become then? When would that be? When I am already futile? When my strength has already vanished? When opportunities have dissipated? When it is already too late to go back?
Today is just one of the humdrum days I am cursed to live. I want a change. I want my life. I want to make my own history. 2007-06-01 08:27:20 GMT
