THINKING OUT LOUD BY FIONA CUMMINGS


Just thinking out loud and wondered wat you thought?

Not everyone is meant to be in your future, some of us are just passing by to teach you something in your life. Not everything lasts forever, there is a saying, all good things must come to an end, we ask why? Why if it’s good? Because there is better ahead. And we only know it’s better because we have not had the best. We only know what is good because we have also had the bad. If we had good all of the time, how would we know it’s good? It would be every day the same old.

 

Sometimes we are stuck in life. Stuck on the same page of the same chapter. We need to turn the page, why? To read on. To learn more. To be kept interested. How boring is life if we stay reading the same line, over and over again?

 

Don’t worry about bad people from your past, there is a reason why they haven’t made it to your future. People who are hurting you now in life, why hang on to them? Make way for better people for people who won’t enjoy causing you pain like those from your past did. If you care for someone, you won’t want to hurt them. You would do anything to protect someone you care about.

 

Scars remind us where we have been, not where we are going. But it’s not always that easy is it? I mean, if we still have scars, we still are reminded of the pain we went through when we were given those scars in life. it’s how we deal with them. What we think of them. How we cope with the memories. How we speak to ourselves about our past pain. Sometimes we go through all that suffering again. The same suffering, we went through all those years ago. Maybe we can train our minds to realise that they were given to us by people from our past, people who are no where near us now.  people who no longer can hurt us and that is why we have those scars, to remind us, so we never forget, just how strong we are, how far we have come. How those bad people, our pasts no longer matter, as we are free.

 

Stuck in life. Where to go how to put one foot in front of the other. Trapped. There are decisions to be made an yet we can’t seem to make them? We really are being pulled in every direction or, just left in one place in life. in a huge circle. Everyone around us is getting on with life, but we are just here. No one with us, no one even seems to be able to see us. We are invisible. But we know we are here; we know we are real. We want to walk forward, but we can’t move. We are frozen. Like statues. Like dolls without batteries. Like those toys we read about who come to life when everyone has gone to bed, only no one is going to bed. We are conscious of our surroundings, but we are paralysed in life. tortured by needing to move but can’t. can’t find the energy, the confidence to make that important decision. We are not offered advice from anyone we are being ignored. We want to do something with our lives, but we can’t do anything. What is wrong with us? We know we need to move or we may find we will never be able to move again. It’s almost like being buried alive. We lay there the soil is being thrown onto us. Faces look at us but don’t see we are still alive. Our brains are working but our life has gone from us. Sucked away like a vampire has sucked every bit of blood from us. We lay there. Wanting to scream but no sound will come from our mouth. If only we could breathe and let them know we are still alive? But no, sadly they don’t see us. We are nothing invisible. Worthless. Unless we help each other. Give each other the support we need.

 

But what if you have no one? But we all have someone you know? We have one person all of the time. Ourselves. And we can help ourselves because if we can’t help ourselves, who can we help?

 

If you are like me, I can help others but not myself. I’m very good at giving advice, but can’t seem to take my own advice. Hmm. Perhaps then I need to talk to myself, maybe we all need to hear our inner voice. Don’t be afraid to listen to yourself to your soul talking to you. Some call that voice God. Some say it’s our minds and we are going crazy, whoever voice it is, try to listen next time and try to do what we are being told.

 

Where do we want to be in ten years? Some may say I don’t care where I am in one year let alone ten, well if that is you, why is this? Are you so fed up of life you really want out of it? So, if you went to the Doctors, and they told you that you had one month to live, how would you feel? Your future, your children, your love, your Grandchildren, your new job you never thought you would get? Your health that will become amazing. Your excitement your new friend you may find such happiness that you never thought was possible. Don’t you really want to wait around to learn what your future holds?
