Reaching out

Reaching

It is really over-reaching to try to imagine that which is anathema? Being in Cagayan de Oro City and trying to reach beyond that which is so obviously a blank wall is just like saying, "this is what life is all about". I cannot believe this is all there is about life. There are so many planets with moons on them orbiting like nothing is wrong, billions of stars and galaxies that whirl about space thinking of nothing but whirling. Is this what being alive is all about?

I have been stuck in Dumaguete for a long time and I wanted to get out of that rut into something which could be called mainstream. I had thought that Cagayan de Oro City would be such a place and for a while I seemed to be going someplace. These days I begin to discover that the image in my mind is far different from the image in other people's minds. I can see now that I need to rethink a lot of things.

It always appeared to me as though the universe in its vastness would have a place which I could call my own. In this planet, there is not a place for me.
