Look up – Do you see it?

Sep 16

Do you often look up? I do and I also mean that literally. Whenever I’m on my way to work I often find myself staring up into the sky, for no real apparent reason. Having spent some time reflecting on this I actually think it represents a little bit of what I’m doing, or rather, trying to achieve. See, the sky and beyond is for all I know limitless. However looking down, into the ground, all I see are my own two feet and the ground on which I’m walking.

How is this relevant, to anything one might ask? Honestly, I still don’t know, I just like the idea. I’m very much a dreamer, often allowing myself to drift off into the distant nothing-is-impossible-land. Whenever I want to do something, I don’t limit myself to what is reasonable, or even rational, no, not me. I always imagine the unimaginable, the beyond of what should be possible. And why should I limit myself? These are my dreams to imagine and I will have nothing less.

So, what is it that I’m trying to achieve? Well, I’m reaching for the limitless. I don’t want to be confined to the rules of common sense. Not to be bound by the box of sanity. No, I want to be free. Free to imagine a life where nothing is impossible, where dreams are not just dreams but rather a visualization of a future to come. The sky is my guide. Each time I need to be cheered up all I have to do is look up. There it is. All the possibilities, the future, freedom, all that I desire.

Do you look up?

    Not enough :)
    Definitely to be encouraged and nurtured.
    I’m starting a philosophy course in October, might be a different way to ‘look out’ and maybe up.

  2. Oh, excellent. I wouldn’t mind taking a philosophy course to be honest. Would be interesting to see how such a course might be structured considering that philosophy is quite “wide” and … what’s the word… philosophical :-)
