We live in a world full of opportunity and with each opportunity dozens of options. In the midst of all these choices I have also begun to notice a culture of control, rather than having these options expand our horizons and provide a new sense of freedom, instead I find it nails down our limbs and limits our expectations. We now only expect what we want and are almost never willing to try something different or do something new outside the boundaries of our own expectations.

Another late night epiphany.. I realized how harsh one can be without noticing it. To be driven, confident and determined is one thing but to be so engulfed in yourself and you forget that you’re part of a something so great as the universe is a loss. We allow life to swish us away into systems that break us without questioning any of it. We give into society and walk down the paths that seem to be clearly taken by many before us. Adventure escapes us in the midst of trying to get there.
We push ourselves so hard we often forget what we wanted to begin with; we lose ourselves. Only then to realize I never wanted this to begin with. Our souls become hardened and we become blinded to everything that actually matters. Recklessness can even take over in many cases.
I made a commitment to keep myself constantly alive, to never forget my purpose and to always stand on a titled edge to keep the excitement in the air.
