The Kingdom of Nostalgia

in #life7 years ago


Nostalgia invades me, my thoughts, feelings and emotions sink into a melancholy and dark sea, actions are aimless and steady, letting themselves be carried away by the waves of the moment.

These are times of incredible demands, the possibilities of a better future are increasingly scarce, despair seizes me and leads me to a hurried search, which frustrates me and makes me crazy, since I do not get anything, I get nothing , Only more salty water for that cold sea saddened, in which I live swimming trying to leave, but the current takes me again and again to the same place, preventing me to move towards land, to a warm and soft sand in which to rest my Tired body, allowing me to be at last calm and happy, enjoying the life I have always deserved, and I have deserved it because there has not been a day when I have not fought for it, giving countless strokes against the current, surviving storms And hurricanes, defeating sharks and whales, but still that happiness does not come, it seems to come in a small boat without sail and without men to make it walk, but in spite of it, blessed is he who knows how to wait, being cons In her walk, since sooner or later the happiness comes, especially when it is well deserved.

Touch not to lose hope, to fill the lungs of air and never to drown me, thus the waves are two hundred meters and the sea will perish infinite, to breathe, to breathe and to breathe, to feel that breath in the depths of my being, until I can swell The soul, to inflate the spirit, is the only thing that will allow me to go ahead with such great challenges, is what allowed David to defeat Goliath, and is what will allow me to overcome any difficulty, whatever it may be, That are within me, those are the most important to overcome, so I find myself in this Kingdom of Nostalgia, that is there, here and there, and that is also in me.

Inspired by the struggle that today the vast majority of Venezuelans live and in my particular life.
