Exploration: Of Adventures or Love?
.
The years creep at your feet, yet you do not move an inch. This status quo is ever so familiar and it is comfort, you ponder, that is probably not worth risking. Though adventure welcomes itself at your front door and stretches its hands like a new lover, pulling your heartstrings. And you forget all logic and jump at the chance of what ifs, leaving questions out of the equation because perhaps you already know the answers that your ears refuse to hear. But the stars have long aligned to tell your destiny: you will trip, scar, and find yourself lost. You knew the consequences the moment you dived in, yet the excitement of firsts is always too tempting to resist that you fall and fall again. That in the end, do you always end up wondering whether you would have been better off behind closed doors? Because I still do.
