Change can start something anew and can allow for the birth of new opportunities, but at what cost does it do so. Change is natural, like aging. It is inevitable no matter how much you try to stunt it. But you know what really sucks about getting older the most? The constraints that your views are being held in grow tighter and tighter and don’t allow for any more room to pass through it. Because of the many opportunities opened by change you also end up receiving a reminder about something else: reality. When you are born it’s almost as if you’re on the top of a great big balloon. Over here, all is great, and the sky really does feel like the only limit. There is a sense of openness which allows you to think anything you want, do anything, you can be anyone! But the balloon slowly leaks, and you gradually deflate down. Slightly but surely, you see other new things… unknown things. You cannot place whether if it is good or bad, but all you know is that it is different. And as you go along you start to face reality, nothing new, it was always there and always will be. Nothing changed between that course of time. And then you finally realize that everything you have seen is just a perspective to glimpse out of all left for interpretation. Not to say that the world really does suck and that what we see is ipso facto terrible. Because really, blessed are the people who can see something from nothing. But perspective really does make the impossible possible. Take diving into a dangerous world. The survivor is the one who wonders not what if he falls, but rather what if he were to fly.
