The last few steps

I had kept awake all night. I was wondering as to what awaits me. There was excitement and eagerness step into the adventure ride. At the same time I was anxious and afraid, my jittery nerves kept reminding me of my fears of the unknown. I did not know what I was stepping into. I did not know how good or bad it was going to be. But something told me to keep moving, and that it will get better. It felt that the door to soul liberation was through insecurity and doubts.  

As I reached the base, I could see my destination. It was clouded but it felt like worth trying. I could not see the whole picture, but I somewhere knew that it is definitely a part of my jig-saw life. As if it was meant to be.

As my fears shadowed my intuitions, my soul whispered what could possibly go wrong. It was worth getting your heart broken over this then not trying at all. I was ready to take on the challenge to discover my soul. And then the sun broke its silence, shedding its serene light on my path ahead. The path lit up, and so did my soul. I was ready to venture into the unknown. As I started walking through the bushes, I glanced back. And I knew that no matter where I venture to, I can always come back to my beautiful present.

And off I went walking through the green grass. The sharp wet blades brushing my feet. The stream of cold water was washing down the trail. From the muddy path to the rocky steps, I walked in patience. There were times when I felt unsure. There were times when I felt so sure. My soul kept on going back and forth. The moments of surety were followed with the insecurity of how I will be able to make it. The moments of insecurity were followed by motivation from soul of the nature.

I kept on mumbling- What could possibly go wrong as I walked ahead…

Now I was nearing the end of the journey. The top seems close and near. Still the insecurity and the courage kept taking turns in my head and heart. There are a last few steps to go. Now as I asked myself the question - What could possibly go wrong?, my soul feels the heaviness in the air. I am afraid to hear the possibilities. The journey till here has cleansed my soul. The whiff in the air has awaken my spirit. I am afraid that the destination which awaits me was never a choice. It was always my destiny.

Road less travelled

I wish life was a little more easier. Sometimes you know you are walking on a dangerous edge…with a steep valley along its edges. One wrong step and you lose yourself forever. You always have the option to step aside and choose to follow the trail more travelled. But you still choose to fight your inhibitions and let your soul converse with nature…with the hope that at the end of the path you shall find your peak. With the hope that there exists a moment awaiting your presence in future, that very exact moment when you will tell your soul- Thank you for making that choice.
