When you have lived a vagabond
life, how easy or difficult is it to get attached to something? Do you always
know at the back of your mind, that everything is ephemeral? That you don’t
have to fall in the trap? That eventually, you are not going to be ‘here’. Or
have you really become a wanderer deep within and you don’t want to be in one place anymore? What do
you do with the restlessness in your heart to move, to keep moving, and not
become stagnant?
But even when you think you are a
wandering soul, is it easy to detach yourself? Do you ever truly get attached,
or detached? Do you believe that something can really last? Do you attach
yourself with a hook, which is easy to take off or do you glue yourself,
wanting to stick? When it comes to detaching yourself, while the hook comes off
easily, the glue peels off the surface with it. You lose some of yourself; you scrape
a part from others. Whether it is a hook or glue, how easy is it to detach
yourself? To step away from all the chaos and sip a moment of silence. Does it
happen at the flicker of your fingers? Or is it like a big heavy rock that you
try to push off the cliff?
Ephemeral ? Hmmm it still holds a special place? Thats how you are attached to it :)...
ReplyDeleteComing back to the ;post, getting attached and detached depends on individual. For some it is as easy as that but for some everything lasts as long as they themselves last. :)
Anyways from when did you start thinking on these philosophical lines???
