The best way out is always through

I am still fretting. Haha..it’s become my de facto modus operandi.

But of course, I must not give up trying to eradicate or lessen that aspect of myself!

Last night was a case-in-point. I decided to be happy and I was. We had a lovely time eating, chatting, and strolling. Everyday can be a day filled with laughter and affection, even if ’serious’ matters need to be discussed. In fact, all the more we should be cuddly and co-operative and supportive during stressful periods! There are no problems so long as we don’t perceive them to be as such. Heard that, Mummy?

It’s going to be an okay day. Breathe, Piggy

When I was a child I sat an exam.
The test was so simple
There was no way I could fail.

Q1. Describe the taste of the moon.

It tastes like Creation I wrote,
it has the flavour of starlight.

Q2. What colour is Love?

Love is the colour of the water a man
lost in the desert finds, I wrote.

Q3. Why do snowflakes melt?

I wrote, they melt because they fall
onto the warm tongue of God.

There were other questions.
They were as simple.

I described the grief of Adam when he was expelled from Eden.
I wrote down the exact weight of an elephant’s dream.

Yet today, many years later,
For my living I sweep the streets
or clean out the toilets of the fat hotels.

Why? Because I constantly failed my exams.
Why? Well, let me set a test.

Everytime someone finds balance in life, it is quickly toppled.

There is no such thing as a state of balance.

Balance is found when one realises that there is no such thing as balance.

Constant reajudstment to constant flux is the only way to acheive balance.
