Since young, I used to think everything are set for us to follow.. As if everything followed a strict routine or schedule.. I used to think the sun would rise at an appointed time without fail on the dot every day or that my mum would promptly arrive everyday at this particular time to pick me up from school.. Till one fine day i was lost, only then i realized that the sun didn't shine some days with the clouds lazily drifting above.. I was at the brink of tears when my mum had arrived hours late..
Slowly, we've become so used to things that Life becomes all too predictable.. The mundane.. However what I've come to discover that the mundane isn't so bland and all ordinary after all.. In the mundane, we find the extraordinary.. Try spotting a dot or even a speck in a sea of lines.. Lines seem to go on forever, well in fact, they do just like the experience of the mundane but once that speck finds its way into the world of lines, it'll instantly stand out.. And it is precisely because of the everyday things that we learn to distinguish and identify what's so noteworthy.. It is because of the mundane that we learn to appreciate the beauty of things..
In retrospect, you'll realize something you've probably known all along, perhaps in the back of your head, that yesterday wasn't at all like today although you've done the same things, the same chores, the same errands, the same schedule.. But the difference lies not in what you do but HOW you do it.. Time to make a difference, things don't get started when you wait..
I'm starting to make moments count.. For we might not be here anymore tomorrow..
I think life's too long a trip.. Too long that it simply gets boring after a while.. Same old stuff, yet that's where the challenge lies, finding ways to make the trip a tad more fun..
The mundane.. Who would've thought that because of it life becomes even the tiniest bit meaningful..
P.S. People might not notice what changes you try to make, efforts you put in.. Do it not for them, for yourself, your future and those who matters and notice.. Don't give up on yourself, for if you do.. No one else can be able to help you..
