" The one with all those litte things ; 8:58 PM "
When was the last time you really appreciated something? Savoured, respected, loved that advantage you had? Closing your eyes to light, blocking your nose to air and stopping your ears from noise;
Everything we do is eventually stated as something we wanted. Not needed. Anyway, it's the time I took to realize what was happening. Just that, I'm twelve. There's so much growing up to do. So much more to live up to. And so much more to expect from God, your family, friends, the world, your country and from yourself. We hardly notice that everything we get in life is just the results of our inner personality. If you like music, you eventually buy a trombone. If you like cooking, you want your kitchen to be beautiful with all the latest cooking equipments. If you like science, you find yourself with all the facilities for labwork. It's basically how much we want to please ourselves. But also, we may not need the trombone. If we REALLY loved music, we could make do with a few plastic containers and two spoons. We may not need the latest equipments for cooking. If we REALLY loved to cook, we could make do with a cheap chopping board and the cheapest knives. We may not not need facilities for labwork, we could make do with a snail from the ground and our brain. But then again...we choose not to.
We always find inspiration. From singers, presidents, leaders, teachers, parents, family...
But when do we find inspiration from ourselves?
When did we tell ourselves that all we need is ourselves and our own minds?
When did we tell ourselves that our BRAIN, SOUL and HEART controls us, and not equipments.
We never did.
