Everything Zen. All in one place ;)

Naked to the world

Baring it all takes courage. It takes tenacity. It takes a certain type of stupidity.

Having it all out in the open, exposed to the elements, for all of humanity.

Humanity. The exact same ones who will look and point. They'll laugh and they'll pity. They'll tell everyone they know, just so everyone can see.

But sometimes, amidst all the laughter, ridicule, and tears, there will be one who will see you for who you truly are.

The person you wanted to show all along. The person that you knew would come out once you bared it all. The person you truly are; without disguise nor facade.

The person who sees you in that light, is the one who understands who you are; who you are to become.

Because,

They bared it all with you. 

You have found each other.

Now run.

Hear and now.

"Without music, life is a journey through a desert."
~Pat Conroy

It plays one the flow of the day. It shows the beat of the walk. The harmony of talk. The vibe of the people around.

It shows you the highs of happiness and the lows of reality. It shows you the deepest parts of your soul in conjunction with the lightest parts of tragedy.

It shows you that life needs to be constantly moving.

Constantly playing.

Never stopping to rewind but to only reminisce and learn from mistakes as to get it right the next time it's played.

Unable to fast forward, because you know that if you do, you will miss some of the most crucial parts of the composition and lose part of its meaning.

Music makes you feel what another is without need of words.

But with rhythm and emotion.

Listen. Feel. Love.

On the way home...

This is what you see.

Is your life over or just beginning?

Think about it.
