One of my Comtemplative dronings again..


Recently, I feel as if I have no control of my life. I am fearful of what the future awaits me. Sleepless nights. Drowning in coffee. The uncertainty of life is daunting yet appealing. Gone are the days when things are pretty much pre-planned. You go to elementary school, receive an education and then go to college. After that, when you become responsible of your own life choices, that's where shit can happen or amazingly good shit can happen. Pretty much a gamble (better to be calculated gamble). Many times, I question my decisions or actions. There is a drawback being a Risk Consultant. You conjure too many life's possible risk scenarios. You weigh benefits and costs, you consider likelihood and impact of each life scenario...I have become risk adverse and perhaps, someone who thinks too much.

I wanna be carefree!!! heheh....Whisk me to the Bahamas, somewhere by the beach with a lovely cocktail where few possible life risk scenarios can happen.
1. Tsunami. Run!
2. A coconut dropping on your head.
3. Tattooed, bearded balding man who sweeps you off your feet (eee..hah)

Funny.

How about another scenario? Picture this:

You and I,
Years and years from now,
Cruising along some coastal highway with the top down,
Stereo blasting,
The winding whipping our hair.
Whatever we want to do,
We do it.
No agenda, no schedule,
Nobody else to worry about.
We travel the country,
Buying silly postcards,
Stopping at tiny roadside cafes in search
Of the world's best blueberry pie.
No Hurry.
No Rush.
Relaxing in the comfort of a lifetime of companionship.
You and I...
Lovers, friends, partners
on this road of life.
