Escape...

There were times when I was chained up.

I was experiencing difficulties that I felt as if I was chained to the problem itself.

Life sometimes would make it exhilarating by loosen up the chain and let me escape. Then I would embrace the so call freedom.

I looked back and realized I was still chained. Excitement all drained and freedom tasted stale.

I wanted to escape. I wanted to exit the world of hardship and pain. I wanted to enter the world of easiness and enjoyment.

I felt empty then.

Expecting all that, I had kept myself chained.

I could not escape.

I came up with excuses upon excuses on why I was still chained.

Even enduring those long period of exhausting trial did not open my eyes just yet. Exalting my own woes, I was eluded from my escape for long and maybe forever.

Only then I found enlightenment. I was my only enemy to be defeated to escape. By executing ways to defeat myself, I was enabled to face my other challenges.

I was entirely in control.

I felt so eellogofusciouhipoppokunurious to finally emprise changes that allowed me to escape…

I felt as an empowered emperor ready to exterminate everything in my path.

That was then.

The old chain is gone, epulation is over and I am now facing another enemy…

I am now chained to another problem.

Here we go again…
