The climax has ended silently and so has
the ending. It’s a chapter of my life that I shall not forget, these feelings
and experiences are lessons to me for my growth, I learn from them and continue
on with my journey. This journey of mine is to self-discovery, success and so
much more.
I
love trying to make my life into a story, a drama. It makes life more
interesting and fun to live in. I think of an experience that impacts my life
would be a chapter of my life. An experience to fight for my life, and experience
to succeed and the experience to love because these long-term experiences are
parts and parcels of a chapter in my life!
“Why do people love watching dramas but avoid
living a life of dramas? You envy the happy ending of the drama but yet you’re
afraid to live a life of dramas?” I love watching anime and probably all anime
consist of drama, so I’ll use anime as an example. Anime such as Naruto, One
Piece, Sword Art Online, Fairy Tail and Beelzebub are examples of the most
popular anime right now. They all have something in common. They consist of stories
about friendship, love, adventure, action and drama.
“What am I trying to say?”
We watch
them willingly fight to death for the sake of protecting their friends. We
dream of having powers to do all sorts of stuff or be absorbed into a
game/virtual world. Without the drama, these anime will be lifeless and
meaningless. Nobody would bother watching them.
“Do you realize something?”
We dream
and hope so much but in the end, we’re all cowards. We’re afraid of getting hurt
physically and mentally even if it’s just a little, yet we imagine a life of fighting
to death for the sake of others with magic and power. We thought that we would
save or help other people but in the end, we just watch them get hurt and walk
away.
“Do your actions speak louder than your
words?”
Liars,
not all of us are liars but so many of us are liars in this world. We lie to
the people around us and ourselves. We lie to ourselves saying “I will help
when I see someone in distress.” Reality, we just walk away to avoid troubling
ourselves.
If just a slice of drama and you’re
afraid, don’t bother dreaming living a life of an anime character ever again.
“Ask yourselves, what kind of life do you
want?” You could choose to live a safe and straightforward story for your life,
you’ll live happily like everyone else but just the same life everyone else. Although, you could also choose something else. You could choose to live a life of dramas
for your story, different and extraordinary from everyone else.
A life of drama, happy or sad ending, it really
depends on how you live your life, to fight till the end or surrender when you
thought you’re defeated.
Lock your arrogant hearts and minds as I too am trying, the choice is yours. Your life is not decided by your parents or teachers or any other people. You make the choice, you take charge and you live your own life! Fill your life with chapters and chapters of stories and dramas, then live and die with tears of joy.
