Carpet Surfing

Have you ever felt like everything is changing?

Of course you have! We all have because our lives are changing, constantly and all we can do is try and keep up.

You know the expression: "The carpet got ripped out from under me."?

Well, carpet surfing is kind of the same thing, except not at all.

It's like you're standing on a massive carpet and someone different is holding every corner and edge and they're all trying to pull it in their own direction. So it's like 'tug of war' but with a carpet and while all of this is happening, you're standing on top of it and trying your best to keep your balance so that you don't fall over or even off.

This is life.

You're pulled in so many different directions that you don't know where to look first, which direction to go or even if you'll survive the storm,

But...

You keep balancing because at some point you'll master the waves and everything will turn out alright.

My little sister is growing up, how dare she.

My family is moving away, how dare they.

My friends are drifting away and apart, how dare they.

And me?

I'm stranded.

I'm treading water as I try to see a way out of this ocean of change.

Will I ever find it?

I guess I won't know unless I try.
