What a great time to be alive, don't you think? There're just plenty of ways to satisfy our thirst for life. So many adventures we can inhale and so many experiences we can acquire whist living but only if we choose to live that way. Only if we decide that a good life indicates one which we
will be that proud of that, one day, we will be narrating it to our grandchildren. I believe that's what the world really needs; thrills' intensifiers and on the edge adventures. Trust me, when we will be all looking back on our lives' experiences, I am sure that indolence won't make a great trophy on our memory walls.
Sadly, no matter the various opportunities which are
available in order to actively enrich our lives, a lot of people are giving up
on the thrills of an adventurous lifetime. I am not judging these people and I shall never attempt such a thing. In fact, I can
identify and, partly, understand the reasons that hold these people back; or
should I say the reason. Fear. Fear of living in
full. For some that may sound irrational but actually it is very logical. All I am trying to say is that we all battle against our inner fears. Remember all those dark and dreadful thoughts which are hidden deep inside your soul and used to feed themselves and prosper through your weaknesses? Those are the kind of fears I am talking about. Nonetheless, nobody should let fears influence the course of their lives. Think
about it that way. Everyone’s afraid to swim till they realise that their
body naturally floats in water. Perhaps all
those risks which some of us are terrified to take are false. Perhaps they are only misinterpreted shadows of our capabilities which, somehow, manage to deprive us from what is
essentially ours; a life full of adventures, thrills and joys. How do you get
that kind of life back? Well, that part is less complex than you may think.
Live. Just
live; fearlessly and as intensely as possible. Gather memories and smile as
bright as you can. Love unconditionally with all your heart and soul. Travel
and see the world. Your neighbourhood cannot be the limits of your cultural
background. Get to know people from all the different corners of the planet and
experience the ways they live their lives. Trust me, only that way you will
truly appreciate the gift of life. Observe and inhale everything and everyone,
but, please, keep your camera off; sometimes it is all about living the moment and
not capturing it. After all, life blooms in existence and not in captivation.
Don’t be afraid to get all muddy and dirty. Sparkling white shoes indicate a
rather boring life. Taste all the explosive ingredients which every cuisine has
to offer. Drink. Whenever you feel you want to, just do it. You know your
own limits and boundaries better than anyone else. And of course, have sex and make it as
passionate as you can; you know, the flesh against flesh, lip biting king of
passionate. All in all, do things you want without second thoughts. Haven’t you
heard already the disastrous consequences of overthinking?
I
know that all these may sound a little bit overwhelming and, to be honest, I
couldn't agree more with all of you who think that way. These personal considerations or, to be precise, life ideals, are not supposed to be written but only experienced. Overall, I guess that this story personifies my effort to influence positively all those who, for some reason(s), have
quit living their life in full. Please, just spare a moment and think about your life goals now. Isn't it about time to realise that fear won't get you far and won't offer you happiness? Life's too short to be dull they say. Shouldn't we act risky and at least attempt to blur the lines of our comfort zone? Always remember that there is a difference between living and existing. Which side would you like to be on?
