I wanted everything so much that nothing was my second choice. Thought I could tame the wild beast but he broke the chains and has come out to feast.
What can I feed him before he realises I don’t have much to offer and runs off to devour the world outside?
Not that the world is innocent and does not deserve some devouring…
Okay let’s see, what do I have? Professor E from the law school said I’ve got potential, The psychologist said I’ve got an amazing mind, and mama has always said I’ve got a bright future…
Great, I’ll feed these, my only possessions, unto this beast of mine – I hope it sustains. And this will be my sacrificial contribution to the world and mankind… I hope they appreciate.
And at the end I’ll be left with nothing because I couldn’t have everything, and I’ll be content – for if I can’t have eternity, I can settle for Neverland.
‘And at the end I’ll be left with nothing because I couldn’t have everything, and I’ll be content – for if I can’t have eternity, I can settle for Neverland.’
This was such a pensive write-up and I could easily connect with everything you wrote. Acceptance is the key to peace of mind.
