Have you ever looked up at the sky on one of those gorgeous days where the sky is infinitely blue and the clouds look soft and fluffy?

Have you ever thought to yourself,

“What would life be like among the clouds?”

Call me a weirdo, but I have thought that to myself many, many times. Especially when my emotions and things in my life get the best of me. It gives me an unbelievable sense of tranquility. When I ask that question to myself, I don’t exactly ponder how it’d be for me living up there but more of like, people living up there, looking at me, down here.

When I put myself in their shoes, looking down at me, a tiny grain of sand among billions, I can’t help but shrug off my frustrations, complications, and stress because those things are even tinier. I’m not saying that my problems are completely insignificant but it’s like me vs. the universe. If I pop a vein in my head from anger and die, what would good would that do?

As humans, we are innately selfish to some extent – or as my dad calls it: driven by self interest. The challenge is controlling that self-interest and implanting the concept of the world doesn’t revolve around me into our minds. It’s not easy controlling the greed of wanting to be significant and important, engraving our tiny existence into the people and things around us. But you have to face and accept that fact. People that constantly run away from it will only humiliate themselves forever.

That’s reality.

I admit, it’s tough facing it at times. I used to run away from it, making a big fool of myself but with the help of some friends, I turned that bad experience into one that would benefit me. When I start to lose grip of my place in this world, letting my emotions take over my consciousness, I look up at the sky. Up at the clouds, it is a world of it’s own. A world unbounded by the chains of time and fate. I watch the clouds gently float above me…those clouds that never stop to observe the ugliness and disintegration going on down here…and taking a deep breath, continue on with my day…
