Where's the epiphany?

Life is a curious thing, the less you expect, the more you receive. The more you expect, well.. You know what happens.

Because we all know what will go down, we'll desire so much from people, situations and moments that we miss the whole point of living it. It's not like we shouldn't have dreams or expectations, it's just that when reality kicks in, it's better to let things flow than increase the "awesomeness" of the idea in our head.

Plus, as always, pop culture, movies and songs get a big slice of the guilt pie. We're supposed to believe to find love in the darnest situations, to change ourselves so we can be more accepted and, when you are in a crossroad, you're bound to have a special revealing moment that helps you solve all of your problems until that point. Guess what? There is no such moment.

I won't say anything about love or changes, because that has a better chance of happening, but this doesn't. You won't be sitting on a train to leave home and realize that you should stay, first of all you probably wouldn't even hop on the train or you would've arrived to your new destination just to confirm the fact that you hate that place and want to go back.

Revelations or epiphanies won't occur in the climax point of your own life movie, just when you need it, because they come from within. They're answers inside of you that didn't realized you were asking a question.

Don't go around life expecting to have a ground breaking spiritual moment in a mystical place, because inner questions can be answered during a silent moment and the only revelation about life you will acknowledge is the one that comes from you.

Lost in the same language.

There are barriers, everywhere. In every part of the world you'll find something that will stop you from getting what you want and making it easier for others to get what they want from you. Some barriers you can climb and some put a hold on you, this time i'm planning to climb my own wall and make a slight change of my usual ways.

I own a blog where I constantly write in my native language, spanish, and express all of those oh so complex thoughts that go through my mind... however, I got tired of it. Not the blog itself, it's just that people grow and change. They grow older, they grow apart and they change themselves so much that you wouldn't recognize what was the first piece of that puzzle.

So this is me, growing and changing. You can't be just one person all of your life, just be true to your essence and let everything else morph with time.
