Story of the Other, Part Two

After a phone call.

-

" It's that we found a story worth telling,

We got the script right,
We got the crew just right,
The perfect cast,

And we were Oh-so-close! to make something that'll affect somebody.

And Maybe just. Just Maybe!

Illuminate a small part of their world by telling our story.

But sometimes,

the beauty is in the attempt.

We took a shot. We did everything we could and we did it well.

It just didn't work out."

Story of the Other, Part One

Can we really foresee our own denial?

It's simple.

You know it's true,
When the very thought of it shakes you literally,
The very scent of the reminiscence sink your heart.
Smile, be joyous.

It's true.

We hope.

Despite our common judgment and common sense who tells us otherwise, we still hope for the impossible.

We cling on that last bit of possibilities at the back of our mind even when we know wholeheartedly it may never happen.

Fate taunts us by giving us glimpse - a sudden flash of light at the corner of our eyes - but when we seek it again, it's gone.

But when it all fails, we blame our circumstances on bad luck, bad decisions and the endless void of being too late.


But you know what,
it's only too late if you've already given up.

It's a beautiful lie.

"We as human just generally think too much,
We are only as complicated as the way we think we are." -M

Think about it.

We do over think a lot. Simple situations turned gargantuan in our own heads. From striving to achieve excellence, or the never ever ending quest to seek acceptance, to even the blistering pain of losing the 9 out of 10 on a tram ride (yes you know who you are), it scars and is forever forged in the back of our mind.

Even though the agony we face from over thinking almost always leads us to regretting what we should or should not have done, we learn. As humans, we learn from our memories, be it good or bad, we are better prepared if the same opportunity returns.

The most valuable lesson one would learn is probably to follow their gut (or heart, which ever suits your personal preference) and whatever that comes of it doesn't matter, as you are who you are. Bottom line, never hesitate when it really matters.

"Nothing ventured, nothing gained."
