An Answer

A simple mind calls for a simple life.

An intellectual heart calls for heartbreak.

A shallow soul calls for an easy lifestyle.

An over-thinking brain calls for unresolved problems.

 

Try too hard, and we fail.

Don't try enough, and we fail again.

 

Love too much and you will be hurt.

If you don't Love enough you hurt yourself.

 

How is it life gives us so many complexes and still expects us not to dream about death?

Or with that, yearn for a day where we can start all over again?

One day a resolution will be found. Burrowed in the dirt somewhere deep inside our growing wills.

Plant your seeds, water your garden, and grow your vessels.

 

Self-Actualization takes time.

This, as you can read, has a lot to deal with complexes and how the world is filled with millions of them. Find your answers, and defeat your struggles. That's all I ask of you.
