Eggshell
It’s been a tiring day. not emotionally or physically, just mentally tiring. how funny that my day can be as smooth as ever, no bad thing happening, no crop-ups, no disappointment, no frustration, no anger, no sadness, no hurts… yet can be as mentally tiring as ever. perhaps it’s the accumulation of mental work over the past few weeks, getting stressed without even realizing.
pressure from the outside. with just a little pressure and the eggshell will be crushed. feels like an eggshell now. empty within, nothing in the core of it, just a shell covering, hiding the nothingness and enclosed space. how ironic. this simply proves that life cannot be just mediocre to be happy, one needs to constantly either fill it with the positive things, or grow from the negative things. there’s no sitting on the fence.
what’s wrong with sitting on the fence, anyway? it’s at the top view, overlooking both sides, having two perspectives instead of one, it’s not interactively involved in either side, safe enough to stay away from trouble. but (here comes the ‘but’), it’s not fully engaging in anything, that’s where one misses out the complete experience. so after warming your seat on the fence for awhile, choose one side and follow it.
