the search for the ghost of success

success may only be a dramatic emotion that causes us to believe we are something we tell ourselves we are. and most of the time it's based on a platform set up by observation from our peers and a rough medium drafted by the media and the so called common mainstream and drawn out by our own faltered egos. imagine your own world minus all of this. do you think you would survive. it would something like the life of a fish swimming away the school off to explore the unknown ways of the vast underwater world called the ocean. would you swim away? maybe you'd just be a bit more comfortable swimming with the school. fallowing leaders into something you have you say in. kind of a scary thought? so why not explore? why not swim free? it's a tough thought to ponder. but imagine the feeling of the freedom. imagine the beauty in it all. ponder the thought of swimming free the next time you feel trapped by anything. and paint that picture... maybe through writing, expression, crayons, whatever... and let that image motivate you through the roughest of times. and maybe even you'll find a smaller school of fish who are searching for the same things you are. search!!
