The Big, BIG world.

One question that has always flitted across my mind, ever since I was old enough to think for myself is, "what if I had been born someone else, in some other part of the world?" Sometimes when I read about another place, or see a picture showing something foreign to my land and my culture, I get a very strange feeling that I have known those things, those times, and those lifestyles once upon a time. Deja vu? Or plain lunacy? I don't know. But fact is, not too many years ago, most of us did not know the big, big world that awaited us "out there". But today, thanks to science, and man's imaginative creativity, that huge blue-and-green planet is almost as accessible as the neighbourhood store. Though this is not what I had intended to write, this is what has written itself.

Breaking away

"I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly, I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky, I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change, And breakaway... Out of the darkness and into the sun, But I won't forget all the ones that I love, I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change, And breakaway... Buildings with a hundred floors Swinging around revolving doors Maybe I don't know where they'll take me but Gotta keep moving on, moving on Fly away, breakaway... " -Kelly Clarkson, Breakaway Some day I will. Flying away is not always permanent. The nest is always there, waiting for you.
