So Mesmerized

Learning so much these days—

perhaps it’s the physical pain that helps reflect how much more heartaches hurt.

We have to find a balance in everything; this is more true than anything you’ll ever hear.
This is easier than said, especially when you think it only applies to the sphere of lifestyle. It’s not; it’s about everything that you can imagine.

Often, we are so focused on one thing and the rest becomes less important, obsolete, unnecessary, or even just out of the picture, as if it is transparent. Often, we do not realize that resembles a form of obsession.

I was mesmerized by one of the most extravagant invention—fireworks. It just captures me and forces me to acknowledge its beauty and irresistibility. You see, the natural landscapes are just as amazing as these artificial fireworks. However, landscapes are just always there quietly—unpretentious, humble, and loving. When I was completely head over heels about fireworks, couldn’t do anything else but admire them, it was then my eyes were open to beauty that exists outside of my circle of focus.

Often, I am either too busy being in love with or too occupied missing someone something, that I entirely walk by something so amazing without even giving it a glance, just like that. At the same time, I become too possessive with what I am in love with, or I turn so depressive with what I am missing, that I am incapable of noticing anything else around me—not even God’s beautiful work of nature that stays in its position at all times; just like that, silently being there for us.

I think what I mean by take a balance, in this case, is if we were able to love or think about someone something, to a certain degree, then spend the rest of our attention on being grateful for what we have, for what is there for us, for what is so beautiful that it does not deserve anything to be neglected, then the love and heartaches would not be so overwhelming; then we will finally see that there is always something that is worthwhile of thinking about, worthy of pouring all those emotions and effort into, just as much, or even more.
