Just Do it

A rush of thoughts comes to my mind, a storm of emotions, as I sit staring at the keyboard and a blank word processing document. Amazement arises at the marvel that is the, human brain that can simultaneously be present at so many different nodes, touching such a wide array of topics and buzzing through millions of thoughts every second. Wish I could throw it all out and fill this page up with the flood that’s rushing through.

It has been thought, it has been planned, but when do changes really happen? How do they come across? It all begins with a simple thought (Inception did have some sense to it after all!). A tiny thought, taken from a movie, a book, a small incident or a major catastrophe can mold you into a different person altogether. However, we do fight that mold, we might stay in it or get transformed or we rebel.

1:47 minutes into the flight, the pushed back adrenaline rushes back out. Its screaming out to do something, and I have no clue what. I could easily go to sleep. Let all the thoughts rest, but then, I would lose them all.  And who said that planes were made to sleep?

I guess it’s something about 35000 ft. The brain waves start functioning differently, new nodes are opened, or the ones that were junked are restored to proper functioning. It offers more clarity, or does it?

After going through my usual rambling introduction (yes, this was just the introduction), lets delve into a little serious business. I never make this too personal, but enough that it does seem human, and in that spirit, everybody has been at crossroads, where there is a choice, and as they say there is always a choice, but then there are certain times that arise, when we can see the path, the only path that we need to talk that will hopefully get us where we want to get to, but we are still not taking it (yes, that was a long sentence. My English teacher would be mortified if she ever got to read all this).

So why do I hesitate, why am I not doing the so called “right” thing. Is it laziness? Do I need a push, or maybe a punch in the gut to realize what I am missing out on? Am I scared? And as I write all this down, I have an epiphany ( And YOU thought I write this for you guys to read? :P ) . Its NONE of them.

It is the lack of the realization that I just had. That I am not picking up the hammer (Yes, THOR). I lack the complete understanding of what I am to become and gain if I do go down that path. And once that comes rushing in (I love the word Rush), you want to get down on that like a rat on cheese.

This new year, don’t make a resolution (cause we all know how well that work out). Go down the path that is meant for you. It might be that its not right in front of you. But once you find it, don’t be a fool like me and waste your time just staring down it. Imagine if staring down it is so much fun, how amazing it would be to actually take it.

With this I take my leave to take a walk down the aisle and probably jump off the plane! I hate flying and a very Happy new year.
