You have two roads ahead of you.
You look both ways, but can't seem to make your mind. You feel nervous, a sharp pain in your stomach and a frozen caress runs through your spine.
You have to make your mind.
One road takes you to anger, wrath and destruction. It's the easy way. There all your fears and frustrations will prey upon your soul and make you dance with strings you cannot cut. This is the fastest way to end, a life full of regret and dead dreams. Only you looking through a hole in the wall, looking the life that could've been but that it doesn't exist. How can you be in love with something you never knew? How can you yearn for the warmth of someone you've never seen? That's the paradox in your head, and it's driving you crazy.
The other road, the joyful road, it's a neverending ordeal. It involves self-abandonment and it requires laying one brick after the other for the rest of your life. Maybe you'll never see the finished product, but it will last forever. Through this path you will meet that person that's gonna fill all that emptiness and light all your fires. You will suffer, oh yes, you will suffer even more than the other path. But you won't be alone. And all that pain and suffering will be meaningful. And at the end, you'll hold your gaze at your work and you will smile and be at peace.
