The World Through a Looking Glass



A looking glass...Such a useful tool? It magnifies words, pictures, or small objects to a bigger size for the naked eye to see more clearly. To many this tool is a daily item needed in reading. Like everything it has it's flaws,,,you consistantly have to move it across the paper to be able to magnify all the words as it limits what you can see on the other side.
I guess you could say this is what my life has been like,,,looking through a looking glass, only allowing me to see certain things on the other side. I've geared into auto pilot and let the looking glass move about to where ever it pleases and to only let me see certain objects through it more clearly. I guess in a way it's my subconscious way to block everything else out. The good, the bad, and the complicated. I let my options be brought to me through that looking glass and only limit my choices to the ones shown to me. But is that truly all I have to choose from? Could I remove the looking glass to see the whole world around me and be able to still filter out all the blurry images not important for my life? Would the choices I then would have still lead me in the right path? Without that looking glass as my crutch, I could be prone to hurting more people I love. Someone always is effected in every choice made by everyone,,,so why do I dwell so much on what effect my choices will have? How can I ever choose between two people I love without making one feel less loved? Is it even possible? So I guess looking through the looking glass is just my life. Just what I do to hide everything inside. Maybe one day I won't be scared to ditch it in the dumpster but for now, I'm admitting my fear of losing everything from making the wrong move. So here I sit, looking at the world through my looking glass.

About Me

My photo
I love to travel and someday I'd like to be able to say I've been everywhere.
Nature is where I like to be, the calm breeze, tall grasses, just the calm silent beauty helps me escape.
I say whats on my mind, so you'll have to deal with my sometimes random frankness.
My life is far from perfect but nobody's is, if they say it is, they're lying to themselves
My family and friends are what I live for and I have a big passion for soccer.
What else can I say? I'm an outgoing, fun, loving, advice-giving person, so give me a your problems and I'm willing to listen. =]
