Ethereal

I feel everything, and at the same time I feel nothing.

To be immersed in fervent emotions, yet quickly become devoid of such intensity only in a moments time. Blank. Empty. Nothing.

I am present, yet I am silent. Lurking. Observing. Only a blur within a calm, yet turbulent atmosphere.

Torn between dichotomies, with the duality of perceptions. However within the duality lies a spectrum containing a myriad of endless possibilities.

Afloat. Gliding upon ruminated thoughts. Breezing with the flow. Absolute liberation. Providing free movement. Devoid of filters, obstacles, and other influences. To be unbounded. To be Ethereal.

As much as it can be a blessing, it is also a curse. One can be easily swept away, floating higher and higher.To easily loose their control, their volition. Inhibiting oneself to be grounded. Unable to grasp the tangible and to perceive reality.

To be grounded enables the ability to recognize reality. However, being grounded completely must be avoided. For it can make oneself become too rigid, inflexible, and unyielding. Blinded from the possibilities. Ignorant from what could be achieved and attained.

To avoid being trapped from one thing or another, equilibrium must be met between becoming ethereal and being grounded. A compromise. To coalesce and actualize. For it holds the key to unlocking the possibilities of reality.
