I have not been made aware of how long I will be held here. The path that has unfolded before me seems to have swept me off of my feet, thrown me in the back-seat and raced down a path of misfortune. It’s times like this you realise how simple decisions in life create entire new paths of fate, and as always – hindsight’s a floozy! Every day we are faced with momentary decisions that have an everlasting cycle ... of cause and effect. As the butterfly flaps its wings, chaos ensues. In a transitional world we tend to find ourselves in a web of uncontrollable situations, a continuation of sporadic revolutions as external variables shape our existence. Sat here in chagrined catatonia, ears drowned in screams of desolation, immersed in a world of anguish and discouragement – I’m overwhelmed with this question: what exactly lead me to this place? They may abrade my bones against the cold iron that shackles my body and take away my precious comforts but they cannot enter the fortress of my mind. It is within my thoughts that my true existence prevails; my inner universe. In life, we cannot dictate all that is around us, but what goes on in the mind is under your guidance, find solace there and you are unbreakable.
