I sat the evening at the bar lounge watching the crowd of patrons to my jazz lounge. On occasions i would take a sip from my glass of red wine. The red wine tasted rich, a light scent of oak lingered long after each sip. It was just the way I like it.
Thinking back, it seemed surreal that I am here now, sipping my wine while listening to jazz, and not somewhere else. This has been the lifestyle that I dreamed of to have someday and now it is all real. Fate could have dealt me another set of cards and I could have been anywhere else except here right this moment.
Perhaps she did, in another time and space. Perhaps in that parallel universe, there was indeed another me that is now sitting, hopeless and homeless in the corner of some anonymous streets with nowhere to go and no one to turn to. I shivered at the thought of that. I took another sip of red wine and shrugged off this fear. It could not been too far a possiblity.
My childhood was a turbulant one, ever since the death of both my parents in the car accidant. Live since then had been a blur, like a metaphoric cosmic whirlwind that hurled me through time and space allowing me neither sense of security nor control.
How then did I survive this metaphoric roller coaster ride through all these years, all these doubts, fears and uncertainties?
Try as we might as a race to look into the future to discern the mysteries, yet unravelled, we fail time and time again and on occasions miserably. The human race just can’t predict and will forever remain so. Clairovoyance will forever remain in the realms of God. What then are we left with, if without the ability to predict. How then, did we, blind as a race, managed to move forward thus far as we did to where we are today?
Seeking deep within my heart I guess this was how. We are here we are today because some amongst us left their doubts, fears and uncertainties with God along with the need for clairovoyance and ventured forth bravely in pursuit their’s dreams backed by almost nothing but faith and a desire to see their visions come to fruition.
