CLEAN-UP

There are so many kinds of mess in this world. In fact, life is just full of it.

There's this mess caused by our stupidity and pride. The kind that we just ignore until it piles up and overwhelm us. It's the mess that we don't really care about until it's right there in our faces.

There's this mess that we create. We crave mystery, intrigue and drama in our lives. We need the mess to make our lives more interesting. To convince us that our lives actually mean something to someone. To make us experience that thrilling sense of fighting to get to that happy ending we've created in our minds.

There's this mess that leaves us crying at night. We fight so hard to turn off our minds and just rest for a while and maybe, just find one moment of peace. But then we wake up and what do you know? The crap is still there. We somehow struggle to get out of bed forcing ourselves to face the world for one more day. Try our best to function normally and do what we are supposed to do and accomplish whatever needs to be accomplished. But this kind of mess still manages to overtake us. It seems that it is always one step ahead of us. And it always gets the best of us.

Mess...
Too many kinds.

It's a wonder how we can live a life that is just one big mess. We try, don't we? We do our best to fix things, to clean things up....but it always wins.

The mess always wins.


Because when you think about it, there's only one kind of mess, really.

...IT'S THE ONE THAT WE JUST HAVE TO LIVE WITH.
