~Crossroads~
There comes a point in our lives when we all reach a crossroad. The moment where we cannot keep running from the reality called life, instead, we have to settle down and accept the fact that decisions are a part of life, and we have to make them no matter how far or fast we run because as they say, 'life always finds away of catching up with us'.
I have come to realise however that being human beings, we never stop being afraid of life, and we always find it hard to accept responsibility. Because of these things, we always try to find the effortless, undemanding and uncomplicated route available, so that we do not have to deal with the more difficult, complicated, 'easier said than done' kind of situations. We constantly make excuses as to why we chose the easier road just to make ourselves feel better.
Why is it we do not say exactly what is on our minds? Why is it we find it so difficult to say what we really want, but always make up for it by saying things we do not really mean? We are inconsiderate to those around us and spew out hurtful words just to cover up and hide the pain that we are actually feeling because we cannot find it in us to let out our true feelings. It is not as if the process as to how we let out our true feelings are any different from saying things we do not mean. No. It is not the case at all. The process is exactly the same. We start out by opening our mouths and then uttering the words that describe how we feel. It is perfectly simple, yet we do not do it.
We all are well aware that time waits for no man. We know that what we want is there in front of us, just waiting for us to reach out and grab a hold of it but we are too afraid to do so and so when it comes to making decisions we make the decision to choose the road which hurts the least as is far less complicated. We live in regret and disappointment but in some bizarre way find solace in it. We should all learn to choose the herder road of the two roads, because from what I have learnt, no matter how hard that road may be it always has a brighter more beautiful picture at the end of it. We can find true joy and happiness instead of a momentary interlude of satisfaction.~Rosanne~
