Crossroads

Sometimes we find ourselves standing at the crossroads.. trying to figure out what to do next.. the fear of the decision not made continues to haunt us for as long as we don't bury the ghosts of the past. Reluctance to take the step forward.. to break out of the shackles we have set for ourselves tends to keep us wanting something.. yet never getting it.

Such time come when we least expect them to.. when small questions keep us occupied through our otherwise peaceful lives. Though not transparent to the world around us, these keep bothering us.. till it comes to that point where a decision has to be taken.

It comes to a point where even staying at the same point doesn't remain a valid option, as the darker side of our past tends to catch up and lure us back in. As we move forward it also becomes important to not sway away so much from the demons of one direction so as to fall into the gleeful arms of another.. its a thin line left to tread.

Perhaps the way out is to take the middle path as preached by Buddhism.. perhaps it is to take a decision and be confident about it.. perhaps its none and I'm just as confused as the world around me.. fear and expectation remain the eternal sins.

P.S. I've been a bit busy, and most importantly haven't felt like writing in a long long time.
