Earth line
In the shower just now, I suddenly thought of what Kyn and I talked about when we had lunch together one Tuesday many weeks ago.
In our daily lives, surely we will get distracted by a lot of things that go on around us, a lot of (more beautiful and good looking) people around us. It's inevitable. We all stray. But we both agreed that the important bit is if we remember to come back to our initial course at the end of the day. Do we remember to go back to the person we have chosen to love and who love us?
The blog post that I was searching for a few weeks before (the one that I was digging for but where I only managed to dig out more forgotten posts) was something about finding an earth line. It was during a sharing session in Pathlight when Victor shared that it's important to find an earth line for yourself so that no matter how far you may deviate from the initial course, you always, always know to go back and can find your way back.
An insatiable appetite for novelty, for explorations and adventures, for the better, for the unattainable. That's us. But like Kyn said, "Get distracted, of course! But always remember to go back."
Indeed. Always remember to go back. Sometimes, we forget to go back... and hurt the people who love us, and are waiting for us to go back.
Yet, if the time comes when you remembered to go back but you did not want to anymore... that's when all is lost.
The war has long been lost. For me.
