Hansel said to Gretel
Let us drop these breadcrumbs…
So that together we find our way home.
Because losing our way would be the most cruel of
things.
This year… I lost my way.
And losing your way on a journey is unfortunate.
But, losing your reason for the journey…
Is a fate more cruel.
The journey lasted eight months.
Sometimes I traveled alone…
Sometimes, there were others- who took the
wheel… and took my heart.
But when the destination was reached…
it wasn’t me who arrived… it wasn’t me at all.
And once you lose yourself, you have two choices:
Find the person you used to be…
Or lose that person completely.
Because, sometimes, you have to step outside of
the person you’ve been.
And remember the person you were meant to be.
The person you wanted to be.
George Bernard Shaw once wrote;-
There are two tragedies in life: one is to lose your
heart’s desire,… the other is to gain it’. Clearly,
Shaw had his heart broken once or twice.
As far as I’m concerned, Shaw was a punk Coz
you know what? Tragedies happen.
What’re you gonna do, give up? Quit? No.
I realise now that when your heart breaks, you
gotta fight like hell to make sure you’re still alive.
Coz you are and that pain you feel:… it’s life
The confusion and fear… that’s there to remind you
that somewhere out there is something better.
And that something is worth fighting for.
This year, I got everything I wanted and everything I
wished for… but, in a way, I lost even more.
As we strain to grasp the things we desire,… the
things we think will make our lives better:…
money, popularity, fame… we ignore what truly
matters…-
the simple things: like friendship, family, love.
The things we probably already had.
So, Mr. Shaw thinks that getting your hearts desire
is a tragedy? I say he’s wrong.
Yeah, losing your heart’s desire is tragic.
But gaining your heart’s desire…
It’s all you can hope for.
This year, I wished for love.
To immerse myself in someone else and to wake a
heart long afraid to feel.
My wish was granted
And if having that is tragic… then give me tragedy.
Because, I wouldn’t give it back for the world
