What Now?

I wonder if the person right next to you can feel what you are feeling and feels the same way as you do. Most of the time, you can’t tell. Is there really such a thing as sensing a spark? You sense chemistry at work with all the moving electrons going about, but does the other person feel it too? What if you’re just hallucinating and perhaps it’s just the cotton fibers of your shirt that’s causing the spark no more no less?

So how do you know for sure? I don’t know. I was thinking maybe the answer lies in being able to distinguish what’s real from what’s not. We have to be careful with these personal mind games that we play. It could affect our sense of reality and blur our perception of certain things, say what we are feeling at the moment or what we want from the current situation. Falling into this kind of trap can be messy not to mention emotionally distressing. We must not let ourselves get carried away by the idea of something that could probably be just a figment of our imagination only. But then this is not to say that we should discard everything as null and invalid because what if it is indeed real and existing? The formula here involves a little gut feel, lots of perceptiveness and huge amounts of rationality.

On the other hand we could opt not to do any psycho analyzing or psycho whatever. Sometimes this could actually be the best thing to do. Instead of mulling over the situation, why not free the self from the burden of dissecting every minute detail and just enjoy the moment, regardless whether it will or will not last. I guess the next sentence best sums up what I have to say, ‘As much as the heart may want to take off into the clouds, the intuition may be calling you back down to Earth, so try your best to balance these energies and use them to infuse a creative burst’.
