middle ground

now listening to: samantha tobey




I keep thinking about what I need to do.
No possiblities. No dreams. Just the fact that I need to do something.
Shall I do what my heart yearns for,
And suffer the financial consequences?
Do I pack up and move to Tibet?
Do I become homeless?
Do I pick up my piece of responsibility,
And suffer the spiritual consequences?
Do I apply for a job with passion involved, but has money?
Do I sit and wait for government funding to do the work?
Am I too extreme?
Is there a middle ground?
There usually is.
I hate middle ground.
I would like to be climbing a mountain,
Or wondering through a dark valley.
I do not see beauty in middle ground.
I don't even know where I am.
All this debating in my mind has seen to place myself in the middle ground.

Someone witty would say this, "Foreground and Background don't make a beautiful painting. You have to have middle ground too." I would want to slap them for saying that.

shalom.
