shades of grey

most of us recall days when we lived simple uncomplicated lives. when days were filled with things that mattered. lives lived from the soul. when your creativity was at its pinnacle. days were lived playfully and lovingly. care free. restful. can you recall those days. how long has it been since you have experienced it. too long you might say. too long ago to remember. you live a life filled with resentment and bitterness. unfulfilled dreams. expectation unmet. frustration. life with its ambitions and driven culture has consumed you. you have lost track of your own reality. you trust in other people's opinions to guide you. just to make it through another day. leaving you unfulfilled and angry. incongruity is at the order of the day. every aspect of your life blurring into the next. no clarity. no focus. no control. no antidote for the busyness. shades of grey.
