Crisp

Morning...
The morning was crisp. One of these mornings, when you need to get out from the house 10 min earlier to allow time for scrapping the ice off car windows. It is still warm enough to step out of the comfort of home without jacket…yet winter coming closer left the trace of her breath on the glass…the air was crisp like a foil wrap from sweets…thin and slightly crunchy. And so sharp and clear. It felt like with every breath you take of it, your own thoughts merged into same texture…crisp…clear…fresh. Driving to work admired the beauty of the fields around the motorway – green grasses of youth, already slightly covered in grey hair of the wise ages…somehow they project contentment…on this crisp morning… 

Insecurities
we all have them…most will be insecure about their looks… others have fear to speak up…some would be scared to take responsibilities…a few afraid of being betrayed by those whom they trust… We would choose to deal with insecurities in different ways too. Some would work hard to eradicate the issue…others in knowing their own fears would try to avoid the situations where they could face them…for some it is enough just to talk about it in a diary and pretend they’ve gotten rid of. False sense of freedom. We all different in virtual reality. We are a mirror image of ourselves. Whatever fears we’ve got in real world, our virtual reflection will try to be opposite. A little indulgence to make up for all those unpleasant experiences…looks and talks are easy to be dealt with. Often those who have these isues in real life, would shine as a beauty contest winner and a master of the words hiding behind the screen…it is also quite easy to give promises, to take responsibilities, as the choice of what one can do in web space is rather limited…The other thing about trust though…trusts don’t come easy even in human life, it is much more harder to trust a virtual someone, who might even not exists. And sometimes when we finally walked the challenging path to trust another, and suddenly discovered they’re different…can we still trust them? After we’ve opened to them completely, it is the hardest decision we make...

    I love the crips early mornings of fall. Being able to go outside with just a sweater on and enjoy the sunrise is one of my favorite memories of this season.
    I battle with my insecurities every day. The good thing is that I have a husband who tells me that I am beautiful, even though sometimes I think he is just blinded by love, it helps me alot.~smiles~
