Once you close those eyes...


When you close your eyes there are two things you envision. Initially it’s one; as soon as you close your eyes you imagine before you scenes from your imagination, thoughts of the past and expectations and dream for the future. But focusing a little you’ll see a reality, the actual darkness of your closed eye lids, focus without opening them, it velvety and swirly and deep…endless. Infinite? Focus too much and you lose it as you pry open your eyes. Balance your concentration and you can watch it for hours that are really minutes, which are really just seconds. Because in a moment the strain of the focus will make you open your eyes.

And that my friends, is life. There are our dreams and aims and then there is reality which is endless the more you go into it the more it turns in to a labyrinth. And just when you are about to get a grasp of it you are stirred up by karma, which either gives you your dreams, or reality.

  1. Sometimes you close your eyes and you see nothing. Sometimes I think that would be good years and years of nothing, instead of the madness that assails me eyes open or eyes shut! It is a good job I can write and get some of the madness down on the screen!
    I often think I just get sorted then a huge great foot stomps on my head!

    1. Writing is the perfect way to let it out.
      Challenges always get us and one should obviously not underestimate them since they come well equipped to fight your sorted self.
