Oblivion
Again, my mind blank, lots of things to write about and share but somehow
for reasons unknown, I never manage to write. Until I do, here are some great
quotes from `Grey’s Anatomy’ that I would love to share…
—————————————-Meredith Grey: A couple of hundred
years ago, Benjamin Franklin shared with the world the secret of his success.
Never leave that till tomorrow, he said, which you can do today. This is the
man who discovered electricity. You think more people would listen to what he
had to say. I don’t know why we put things off, but if I had to guess, I’d have
to say it has a lot to do with fear. Fear of failure, fear of rejection,
sometimes the fear is just of making a decision, because what if you’re wrong?
What if you’re making a mistake you can’t undo? The early bird catches the
worm. A stitch in time saves nine. He who hesitates is lost. We can’t pretend
we hadn’t been told. We’ve all heard the proverbs, heard the philosophers,
heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time, heard the damn poets
urging us to seize the day. Still sometimes we have to see for ourselves. We
have to make our own mistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to
sweep today’s possibility under tomorrow’s rug until we can’t anymore. Until we
finally understand for ourselves what Benjamin Franklin really meant.
And one of my favourite quotes;
“ That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than
sleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the worst, beat the hell out of never
trying.”
My thoughts : Sometimes, oblivion is bliss, or maybe fear factors in my
reluctance to know more as I’m not ready for any disappointments. Truth can set
me free but the truth can be hurting as well. Being oblivion doesn’t mean I
wonder from the truth,though.It just mean I don’t want to know. .Friends had
said that’s equals to running from realities.
Well,that’s just me ; a self-confessed escapist.
