WALK THE LINE...

TODAY IN THE EVENING, I WAS ROAMING ABOUT THE ROOF BECAUSE THERE WAS NO ELECTRICITY...I WAS WALKING ALONG THE RIDGE OF THE TRIANGULAR CROSS-SECTION ROOF...AND I WAS BALANCING MYSELF TO PREVENT ME FROM SLIPPING OR FALLING DOWN...AND I JUST REALIZED HOW THAT IS WHAT WE DO EVERYDAY...WALK THE LINE...BALANCE EVERYTHING SO THAT WE DO NOT FALL OFF...HUMANS ARE THE MOST GIFTED BEINGS ON THIS PLANET...THEY ARE ALSO THE MOST CURSED, I THINK...I MEAN, ALL OUR LIFE WE KEEP WORKING FOR WHAT WE DO NOT HAVE...AND SELDOM CONCENTRATE ON WHAT WE HAVE...ALL OUR LIFE THERE IS A CONSTANT SENSE OF TENSION AND ANXIETY...EVERYONE AIMS AT ACHIEVING BALANCE...BALANCE IN LOVE, BALANCE IN WORK, BALANCE IN LEISURE...AND EVERYTHING ELSE TOO...BUT, FOR ONCE, I WOULD LOVE TO EXPERIENCE NON-BALANCE IN MY LIFE...AND NOT THE BAD KIND...BUT THE KIND WHERE EVERYTHING IS AUTOMATICALLY FIXED AND I JUST SAY..."LOOK HOW THAT WORKED OUT FOR ME."


AN IDEAL LIFE IS ALWAYS SOUGHT FOR, BUT SELDOM ACHIEVED...AND THE ONES WHO DO ACHIEVE IT ARE EITHER REFERRED TO BY THE SOCIETY AS SAINTS OR LUNATICS...SAINTS NOT VERY OFTEN, BUT LUNATICS ALWAYS...AND IS IT BECAUSE WE HAVE NO REFERENCE OF WHAT AN IDEAL LIFE IS AND WE CAN NOT FIGURE OUT THE PERSON WHO ACHIEVED IT, OR IS IT BECAUSE OUR JEALOUSY BLINDS US AND WE ONLY CHOSE TO SEE WHAT WE WANT...EITHER WAY, WE ACHIEVE BALANCE IN LIFE BY BLAMING IT ON THE OTHER PERSON AND LAUGHING ABOUT IT...AND THIS FEELING OF JEALOUSY SOMETIMES REDUCES HUMANS TO MERE COYOTES...

AS A LONER AND AN "OUT-CASTE" IN SOCIETY, I KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO BE CORNERED BY PEOPLE WHO ARE JEALOUS OF YOU AND THEN PICKED ON...AND THE STRANGE THING IS ,NO MATTER HOW BAD THEY HATED EACH OTHER, THE FACT THAT THEY HATED ME ,BROUGHT THEM TOGETHER IN A STRANGE EVIL ENERGY...BUT I AM WALKING MY LINE...SO AS EVERYONE ELSE...AND WITH TIME I HAVE REALIZED WHENEVER A PERSON PICKS ON SOMEONE, TAUNTS SOMEONE OR RAGS SOMEONE, IT IS NOT BECAUSE HE HAS POWER OVER THE OTHER, BUT IT IS BECAUSE THE PERSON WANTS TO SHOW THAT HE IS CAPABLE OF HAVING POWER OVER THE OTHERS...BUT NO MATER WHAT, NO MATTER HOW, EVERYONE IS BALANCING THEIR LIVES AND JUST SIMPLY.....WALKING THE LINE
