How to walk

STAGE 10: The first thing that sparks once you're born is the attachments, between a parent and their child. An interaction between one and another being. How are we just supposed to know even the basics of it when it's never taught. What is right? What is wrong? What are the limitations? When one meets the spark for the first time, no one is clear of the path following after it. Some are lucky to have warning signs beside the road, but some walk into the thorns thinking it's normal. Hurting both people at the end of the road with or without meeting in the middle. We never knew what it meant to have a spark dim, to switch paths and ended up crashing into a train that wasn't meant to happen.

Overthinker

'Embrace the moment', I try to remind myself, but it'll occasionally slip my mind when I begin to think about every single bad thing that could happen instead, looking 10 steps ahead of me. Often thinking for other people and making assumptions that aren't even true. I allow myself to act a certain way just because I've been hurt in the past, and that's my excuse? When we look back onto mistakes, we often think about what we've done wrong and what could've been done better. Yet changing from it can be easier said that done. Without noticing, sometimes we'd still fall into the bad habits because to grow out of it, discomfort is essential. Truth be told, no one could acknowledge their own mistakes without someone else pointing it out. So how could I assume the worst when I make mistakes too?

Especially only having the purest intentions just to receive the most unexpected reactions. They say 'Mistakes are meant to be made', so lessons were learnt. But how does one know of the consequences when there was no Rule Book in the first place. Being the one getting hurt meant you had an excuse and a reason to blame that is not yourself. Being the one getting hurt meant you have the choice to forgive and forget. But in the end, you, are the one getting hurt.  Yet being on the other end means you'll live a lifetime feeling indebted over a past action. Over something you can't seem to understand it yourself. Getting called labels for a memory you wish you can alter. I can't lie that some actions that I made were genuinely stupid and karma does exist at some extent. However ...

Souvenirs

I'm not in the search of friends,  a big group of friends that always hangs out. I'm looking for friends,  where I can comfortably gives souvenirs to, no longer 'over buying' and keeping it in the drawer filled with untouched keychains. Where I pluck up the courage to gift the way they do,  yet it's overlooked. As far as I know, I still don't know how to give the way others gift.
