What’s your New Year resolution? For many, a new year signifies starting afresh however in my opinion it’s not really a brand new start but rather a new start towards your previous experiences. Ok, it might sound rather confusing but nevertheless what we all want is another chance to be at it and to set things right.
I’ve a friend who says resolutions are meant to be broken, however I thought otherwise. I want to share this quote with you my friend.
“May all your troubles last as long as your New Year's resolutions.” ~Joey Adams
Lol … hell am I waiting for that day in which your troubles last
Back to where I left off, through some reflection I thought about some stuff. It was about the origins of some of the actions that I carried out. As I reflected I thought what the problem was, was that my objective changed through the course of time, I thought I changed. But I guess, thinking and reflecting is pretty similar to games. Like I always say, brute force not necessarily wins. Therefore, you shouldn’t squeeze your brain for every last bit of creative juice. As I sat back and relax it suddenly hit me. Nothing changed; it was just that I couldn’t meet my objective.
This might sound rather abstract. Originally, I wanted to look for a pond, one which I could sit back and see my own reflection. As I journeyed and finally chance upon what I thought was such a pond, I stared at it. Initially, I did see my own reflection or rather I thought I did. I started to invest more time staring at this pond of mine and I grew to like it day by day.
But later on did I realize that the true reason why I loved this pond was otherwise. It was true that I like what I saw, but was the reflection truly me? Through the eyes of the fishes all they really saw was a masked man. When will the time come in which a fish would really see what lies beneath the mask?
The New Year does not mark a new beginning for me rather it serves as a chance for me to set things right. To do so, I have to go back to the origins. The origins in which how I truly felt, that is to summon the emotions that gave me strength. To mark a new beginning I’ve decided to start a new journal. One which I could really find that fish whom could truly see who I really am. I will still be writing here but I guess it would be on different grounds.
