Came across a piece while surfing on Facebook. Really, lovely song. Being able to reach out with such beautiful voice, makes this song even more touching.
Realising he's younger than me and capable of creating such music, being impressed does not even begin to describe it. Somewhere deep down, i really wished i had been able to do that. To do what i had always dreamed of doing. I wished, back long ago, that i knew where i wanted to be, and how to get there.
Which drives me to a question i have asked myself a million times. Is this what i have always wanted to do with my life?
Being here had always seem like a natural course for me. Come out from high school, get into a college, then into a university, and graduate with a piece of paper that'll fill your rice bowl everyday. I was just going where the wind brought me to, without thinking where i will end up.
Yet, was this where i wanted to be?
This is supposed to be a free world where you can be whatever you want to be. But there's so many strings pulling everything around you, strings pulling you that sometimes, you don't feel like you have control over anything at all. Family, money, politics, economy, obligations, time, luck, .. sometimes, all it seems is like your control over your life is but a delusion all along.
Perhaps, i hope, everything happens for a reason. That's the only thing that still kept me in my delusion.
Because losing control over your life, that's worse than losing your sanity.
Deep down, i still wished i learned how to create music like that.
