I feel like I’m stuck between the past and the future but I’m not in the present.
I don’t have any goals anymore, don’t talk to me about hope and ambitions. I was born an idealist.
Between the past and the future, I enjoy reminiscing. Because in the past, things happened but in future, nothing ever happened.
Now I just live day to day. Picturing the sins and uncomfortable moments every evening.
I’m a late bloomer. Laggies.
I used to pray to die young, to wake up next day somewhere, or beside God right away. But I was innocent at that time. Now I am no longer naive. So I pray my sins forgiven before I leave this place.
Every day I grow up getting more scared than ever. Commitments, human interaction, possibilities, risks, past mistakes. All this while every one keeps moving forward, braver then ever.
To quote Tyler Durden, “Losing all hope was freedom”. It’s not rhetoric, it’s true. Just like love, it requires courage too, to give everything up, to not give a fuck anymore and to commit whatever you wish you did it long time ago.
When I was 18, I always hated “ignorance is bliss”. I think we should all be vigilant, stay curious so that we’re always learning. That we finally reach our full potential and may we become Übermensch, just like how Nietszche imagined but of course no one ever achieved that. But at least, we become better each time.
Ironic.
Now, I’ve been so ignorant, each day more than before. All i do is minding by own business because I hate people minding my business. So I don’t do it to them. The bliss? My happiness? I think it stays the same. Like Van Gogh said on his deathbed moments before his final breath “The sadness stays forever.”
But will I keep doing this? No doubt, but I also aware with the cost. Imagine Dragons sang “Then I shot, shot, shot, shot a hole through everything that I love” because like the Sister said to Christine (Saiorse Ronan) in Lady Bird, “Don’t you think they are maybe the same thing? Love and attention?”
To share one of the most important quote in my life and the crucial nihilistic side of me, echoed well by Freddie Mercury, “Nothing really matters. Nothing really matters to me.”
Just like the song too, life started slowly, going up, then the drama happens, a lot, in many forms, then it goes down, it ends, calmly — once and for all.
