Petrified

I am.

Of the future, the expectations, the world.

Things carry on, time doesn't wait. The ship has sailed.

Those that were have already been, and those who are going to be will be.

People come and go, some are left behind, some far ahead.

Situations change, people change, and the world changes.

We age without liking it, we grow up without realising.

We do without thinking, we take charge of our lives without knowing why.

And what is the meaning in all this?

What next?

Have you ever wondered? I certainly have.

There is no meaning to the life we once knew. Or the one we currently know.

Is there? Do you really find true meaning in shopping, clubbing, and drinking, or is it just another excuse to seek solace and temporarily escape from the meaningless world?

And if you're wondering where or what this existence means, you're just like everyone else in the world. You are not alone.

I have found a Meaning, one True Meaning.

This week, the Meaning spoke to me.
It said;
"I will never stop being merciful to you, my love and loyalty will always keep your safe."

Then I am sheltered, protected, and comforted. Although still petrified, I know the Meaning I cling on to, the Meaning that completes my life.

I hope you find it too, because the Meaning is looking for you.
