Do you know....
The fear of the unknown is excitement enough to make you plunge face first into what ever that darkness holds... What you get or get into may not be what you expect but the satisfaction of knowing what it is, is part of the calculation and evaluation you did before you made the decision... "LOVE" is the most common darkness we dive into, but being that it is the most common its the least we know about... Real love can't be defined or described we just know it's an euphoria and hell all in one box... But the "hell" we feel is created by ill saturated feelings and doubts... Every situation has it's own finger prints down to the one's who choose it.. So although these are calculated risks and a lot of us approach them no matter the reason, we all know that there is room for disappointment and failure... How we routinely approach things and and let them change our outlooks and mannerisms is not apart of of the calculation we made when we chose to explore the unknown.... So in turn, do we really choose to make these decisions or do we already know that some of them will fail making it not so much an "unknown" but pure ignorance and naiveness to what has been explored by others and informed to you? Or do we still approach it as "unknown" because one's outcome isn't the same as another turning off the "knowledgeable" light and making it darkness again? These are the only cases where "ignorance" is actually bliss... I think anyway....

Finger prints are an interesting point of view. And diving into darkness reminds me of the moments before a dream. I see LOVE as a combination of two things 1) a Scientific experiment and 2) a dream. Either way, darkness is brief and the unexpected is welcomed.
ReplyDeleteIn my world there is no longer the fear of failure. It's expected in a way that promotes greatness. Failure is a necessary part of life to get to the favorable results. I see love more as an experiment through the eyes of a dreamer or inventor, and with the curiosity of a scientist who never gives up on finding the right combination that may change the world, or in our "case of love" create an unforgettable sensation. Like unique fingerprints every couple has different chemistry.
Approaching situations differently in hopes of NOT failing or getting hurt is one thing, yes, even naive, because great things come only after we forget about failure, work through every obstacle to be the best "us" we can be. It's insanity to keep trying the same thing with the same person and expecting a different result. But if our approach changes or the players change we are back to being dreamers. When we are dreaming the quick trip through darkness is worth it to see what new world may open up with the person we choose to explore these stolen moments with. We can only hope it isn't a nightmare and that walking away is easy if this should turn out to be the case.
