Hopes, dreams, love, expectations ...

Ramblings. My reflections on life.

We move around uncertainties within uncertainties, perhaps revolving around them forever, for we are afraid to come to face with the truths we would eventually have to face.

 

Living in denial seems easier than out in the open, maybe we like holding on to a flimsy layer of hope, even clinging to it. 

Perhaps - it keeps us sane. 

Perhaps - it makes us who we are.  

Perhaps - we need to get out of that circle of uncertainty to really see the shape of what we've been revolving around. 

Hopes, dreams, love, expectations... I wish there was a life beyond and independent of these where we could be our own masters; 

where none could influence us, not even ourselves ...

Of course we need to get out of that circle of uncertainty.. but is WE who need dare it

'Hopes, dreams, love, expectations' don't grow on trees, to be picked according meal times.. they're there, ripening into irrepressible need.. Time comes, we smell the air, we feel with fingers that know. instinctively.. and more.. much more..

Your words inspire. Others fade but you grow. Wonderful!

Aye, so they are, still sometimes things get way overboard...
Thank you for your lovely words, Em. Always appreciated 😊

[emmajoy]

Wow. I love how you articulated these insightful thoughts. You have a beautiful way with words. I find living in denial has defined me for too long, and I'm now in a position where I'm willing to fight my way out of that box.

It never ceases to amaze me how your words from half a world away speak into life the thoughts and feelings of all of us, this cry for freedom, for a life beyond boundaries and barriers. You'll find that life, if anyone can. “Don't be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.” ― Rumi

Thank you so much for your lovely words, Craig. Always appreciated (:

Always amazing to find your words here, Yumna. (:

Our mind always continues to create and explore something novel. Something opposite,
working inimical to what life brings for us.
But continuity brings its own perks. Then life becomes beyond expectations. And love~hope.

Really Glad to see you back. :) Keep writing.

[Dr. YumnaKay]

The song by Fleetwood Mac - written I think when the lead singer and one of the founding members, who had been an item, fell out but chose to continue making music and touring and performing on stage together - called 'Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies.' comes to mind Yumna.
There can be an existence in denial - even in a hyper-aware form of denial - even in a coercive pressure to continue the farce for the sake of that existence, rather than to give up altogether.
Keep writing you ;p

[Dr. YumnaKay]

I think there is. Fake it till you make it, right? Thank you for your words, Tony. Always appreciated, dear friend 😊

[Tony Jordan]

It is a highly recommended cognitive behaviour technique
good to see you Yumna!
(I'm sure many on WC will echo that)

[Dr. YumnaKay]

I'm humbled. Good to be back, I guess ;) :)

[Tony Jordan]

Who recommended it...?
Hmm...we'll never know...he didn't make it...lol

Maybe... Just maybe there is actually a life beyond those; it's just up to us to look for it. Who knows? Then again no one can be certain, heh.

Short, simple but honest piece. Keep writing!

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Aye, nothing is certain... Thank you for your insight here. I appreciate (:
