balancing act….
i’m now walking over the edge of a cliff. an acrophobic enjoying the view from above while holding my shaking knees in place. well, i used to tell my lady friends that falling down (syempre, di naman pwedeng up di ba?!) from a cliff is not so much an accident, especially if you have a choice not to be there. but as an enchanted moth would take a kamikaze dive into the flame everytime he sees one glowing in the dark, we often choose to walk through a path of danger.
somebody would always say, that is life. or more accurately, that’s human nature. come to think it, the philosophers of the past haven’t heard anything about journalism, or maybe they were to bright for that matter, but should they read a few books, they could not have wasted much words in theories and parables in sending us the message that the battle really in this sailing called life is within ourselves. and if we master how to fight and win in battling with ourselves, everything outside is just a piece of cake.
