We live each and every day the same,
we never take any chances.
Ordinary is the word to describe our daily routines.
We all draw inside the lines,
we all think inside the box.
Why would it be so horrible
to take a chance
and scribble a little outside the lines?

The answer is simple-
we are afraid.
Afraid of becoming different.
Afraid of leaving our shells that we have lived our who lives in.
Afraid of seeing things in a new unique way.

We are afraid of those things that we may see,
for they are so unlike what we can see now.
We will have no guidelines on what we see.
And in this world that we just have begun to see,
there will be nobody else who sees the same things.

But if we leave our fears behind,
if we dare to color outside the lines,
if we dare to see the things unseen...
something amazing happens.
We realize that we have broken our chains
and now can see the world
in it's magnificent beauty and glory.
We can see things beyond belief.
And we see that the ordinary isn't really ordinary at all...
*the ordinary is extraordinary.
