Smigster's blog: "My odd thoughts"

There are times in our lives that make us enter the realm of the unknown. We begin to see the other side of ourselves at this point. There is no turning back at this point, no u-turn. The path is set before us is hard and extravagantly rocky with all the pressures of outside influences. Some make it to the end, others do not. How we navigate and learn in this unknown abyss makes us more aware of the opposite side of life. We rarely see any influence that shows us a good way to crawl through this, but they are out there. There are songs, people, movies, and books that make the journey less desperate than it is. Focusing and surrounding yourself with these make all the jolts of pain and the face plants less than what they would be without them. The trek is something to be aware of, and if, only if, you make it out, are you wise enough to say you have lived.
