At musing's end...


'...I like to imagine it because it will be beautiful.'

Have you ever wondered whether or not this was all just a game we played? You, me, all of us; just pawns. Everything said, everything done, and even lack of speech or action at all...just part of the strategy. I often think to myself that there are so many people out there that take life that way, not as an experience, but a chance to come out as the victor. All decisions made so calculated and pre-planned; how can one call that living? Sacrifice of a friend for a heart, or vice versa. At times, not even just one. Countless innocent people given up all in the quest for 'being better' than the next person. Always trying to keep one step ahead of everyone else, who in turn is already trying to keep one step ahead of you. All for what, pride? Status? In this 'game', there is no time to stop and smell the roses, unless the roses gain you brownie points...

Life does not have a high score. Life is in story mode, not versus. You can't put in more coins if you lose a life; you have just one shot at it, so make it worthwhile.
