It happens to all of us at some point. We start off on the right path or heading towards the right destination and somehow along the way we get utterly lost. Do not think of it as a bad thing because getting lost is just a part of life. To be honest, right now I am in a part of my life where I am lost, but I am heading towards something great (or at least I hope so one day) and I am sure that a lot of people feel the same way. There is this quote that I found that is absolutely amazing. “Just because my path is different doesn’t mean I am lost.” What that quote is saying is that everybody’s path is different and that is perfectly okay. It is also saying that does not necessarily mean that we are lost. It is just the way of life (as I was saying before).
I know that we all get lost, but sometimes it is better to not feel so alone in getting lost. In other words, you have to find someone who is not afraid of getting lost with you. It does not matter if it is a friend, a family member or someone you love (like a partner, etc.), but you should be able to lean on them and trust them. Another thing that goes along with being lost is being found (sometimes again). There is this back and forth thing going on with being lost and then being found. Sometimes we want to be found and other times we do not want to be found (in other words we want to be lost forever).
I want to encourage my readers (that would be you who is reading this) to take advantage of this time when you are lost and realize that although it may seem like a sucky thing like that is something wonderful. It means that maybe you are not happy with how your life is going and hence getting lost is the best solution to that. There is a quote (that I love) that explains why getting lost is a good thing. “Getting lost is a good way to find yourself.” I personally think that in those moments where you get lost (which can be scary) is when you truly find yourself and what you truly care about. I hope that you enjoy this piece (and get literally lost within it if you want to). Cheers!! I still hope that you all find someone like this in your life (and trust me that they may be worth it completely).
Lost Together
I was more afraid of losing you rather than
Losing myself. It was not that I was getting
Lost, it was the fact that I could and can
Get lost with you. We were not jetting
Off to somewhere new and foreign
Because we are not worried about fitting
In with anybody. Together we have fallen,
But we are getting up and continuing on.
Sometimes this big world is barren
And cannot protect us. We cannot let it wan
Our hope or faith that we will survive while
Still getting lost together. Let the past bygone
As well as this unexplored terrain. Every mile
Lost is another step gained from walking this
Path with you. Every tear and smile
Is worth it. We would never want to miss
Out on any of it. Getting lost is an adventure.
We are going into the dark hole and abyss.
