Light of Hope

Carpe Diem - the famous apparition of the frustrated souls haunted me for years. I refused to succumb because I know for a fact that contentment doesn't sit well on everybody's heart. I had this thought that there is only one thing that we ought to accomplish. Something that is long-term and not attained on a daily basis.

And so I went on, watched the days go by on their own. I grew complacent, satisfied with status quo, unwittingly wasted my time treading water. For years I lived my life that way, caught in the conspiracy of the ideals that my own mind had plotted against me, with a twisted reasoning presented as a new kind of light, which I wholeheartedly embraced. But it left me empty. The precious lessons from my mentors were taken away from my memory. I walked the course of a fool with accomplishments far in comparison to what I should have had achieved.

It's never too late. I can see the light of hope that is enough to cast away all that had torn me down. I have resolved to welcome Carpe Diem back into my life. I am moving on.
