Fly away, Butterfly

Dear Butterfly,

I sincerely hope that you are doing well and that your days are filled with love and laughter like the days we used to have together. I still can’t believe you’re gone.

I had no idea of what I had until you decided to take it all away from me- no explanation all. I keep hoping secretly that one of these days you’ll bring it back, that you’ll restore me back to what I was but somehow I know that you’re gone and so is the sunshine. You left behind a mess and a hollow space in my heart that only you could fill up and now you’re gone…

I won’t lie and say it doesn’t hurt because it does. I won’t pretend that I’m fine because I really am not. I’m broken inside, hurt and desperate for something to take the pain away and you’re just gone. I won’t ask why you’d do it or even why you couldn’t be honest with me, I won’t like the answers but one question bothers me day and night; are you happy where you are now?

i miss you and it bothers me more than it hurts. I miss you so much that I sometimes think to myself that it would have been better if we hadn’t even met. In any case, I wish you well with your life.

Love,

Z

Beyond The Veil

Human beings, all throughout history, are recorded to have always been curious and consistently on the quest to finding the answers to life’s hidden truths. It was that innate yearning to know and discover that sparked the humans ability to create and execute things that were new and exciting. For them, the world was full of wonders and mysteries waiting to be uncovered. Personally i don’t think the world, both the good and the bad sides of it , would be where it is had it not been for the men and women who played an active role in shedding the light on some of the world’s unknowns.

Modern human beings might have built on and exploited the foundations lain down by their forefathers but that desire to explore and know still lives inside of us all. There may not be many da Gama’s around anymore and we may not all want to brave the oceans to see what lies beyond the horizon but we go about our quests for knowledge differently; in ways more suited for the times we live in.

My personal quest is centered around the soul, defined by the Collins Dictionary as the immaterial part of human beings and consists of your mind, character and thoughts. Uncovering the veil to my own soul has been an obsession of mine for a while now. I desire to know what or who this soul of mine is, how it plays a part in who i am and if it is something I have any control over. Am I really who I am or am i merely pretending to be that which coincides with the idea of who i think i am?

In a world that is full of fake, it is so easy to forget what its like to be real. uncovering the veil to the soul could be the key element in helping human beings rediscover who they really are and help them to see that they’re not the vicious animals they pretend to be. I think that if more people were reminded of who they truly were, most of what is happening in the world wouldn’t be.
