Thinking Out Loud

Girl on swing

 

If you think about it,

I am no different from you

Not better, not worse.

No matter the class, style or character,

we are individuals just trying to do the same thing as everyone else.

Survive.

Grow.

Indulge.

Yes, we are indulging in life, this so precious life.

We are all flesh, human, with the motives, but with different motivations.

We are no different, yet so incredibly different.

When we strip down to our very core, we are made up of beautiful things.

Things like compassion, love. Things like the drive for justice, the longing for peace.

We all long for something, as life is meant to behold things of such.

If you think about it,

Our society has birthed a tragedy bearing disunity, hatred, false senses of justice.

It has brought uneasiness, anxiety, fear, and the power of wasting potential.

Potential.

That’s an interesting term.

It’s the what could be if the inner you would just leap forward and forget fears.

It’s what each and every one of us possess.

Something that we are born with, yes, all of us.

So don’t waste, but rather find and use it for not you, but someone else.

Sing for your friends.

Play for your mother.

Work for your lover.

Write for a purpose.

Search for an unknown.

Love for a life worth living.

Love because that’s what this life is all about.

Love, that being loving not the person one has become

but for who they were to begin with.

Love because you love to love, and they have a love you love to love.

Love because you can’t help it.

Love for the reasons you thought about.

Because, If you think about it,

what is love without loving what you don’t always love.

Loving is loving the not-great things.

Loving is loving the imperfections.

Loving is giving yourself up for the protection of another.

Loving is knowing that no matter what the other does, your love will never cease.

But, I’m just here thinking out loud.

What do you think?
