Description
There I am, talking to friends, living a life most would envy. I'm happy, have lots of friends perform sports, play guitar. Success greets me around most corners, not immediately yet time finds its place. I walk around enjoying the touch of rain, the warmth of the loving people, the cheer of the enthusiastic friends, and the plans we make yet silently agreeing that we will probably never execute them. The life with empty happiness greets me as a flowing river that sweeps me along yet has no water. As a tree waving in the wind ,yet without his leaves that compliment her bark. When I sit down and look at this tree I see I lost something, my leaves that would fly in the wind making me feel light and unencumbered. The water that would fill my emotions with strength and weightiness. That innocence I once possessed, got ripped lose from my branches, and ravaged down the hills leaving the mountains it came from empty.
I grieved about those leaves and the water that had left the nature within me, never to return again. Then I see the leaves as they slowly fell and fed the ground, the leaves turn to earth and nourish the tree. I then looked at the mountains that got covered in snow and ice, from here it only takes time, and patience, will, and tranquility for the leaves to grow, and the snow to melt. From there I am a newborn man, cleaned from yet another mistake I once made, fresh to wave my leaves in the cool morning breeze, and ready to replenish the lakes of wild uncontrolled emotion. As I regained the tranquility within me.
