I am on this planet? I dare you to move. I dare myself to move because I dare not move even with the slightest effort. I am baked in the crust of mediocrity and enjoying my stay at the "common place" station. Never intending to board the train. I've gotten too comfortable standing in that platform letting all trains pass by... missing me... going past my life.

The lure of the unknown and the unexplored scare me. The truth is I'm a chicken. Scurrying away, running scared, ducked, hiding, always craning my neck, scanning the horizon for the dangers that lurk out there. What a gahstly box! This square, this fortress I've surrounded myself with is a big bull.

I'm like a sea gull in the vast empty ocean-lured by any prey because of absence of choice. Never minding if such prey is worth diving for and risking the danger of being crushed by the perpetually angry squall of the North Sea. What a daft idea.
