To board a train

The difficult part of boarding a train is this; looking back over one's shoulder, doors closing, finding the present becoming past, quickly disappearing into the far distant land of memories. Why is boarding a train challenging? A train will take you on a journey into a world filled with possibilities, joy and new beginnings. One would think these are the heart's great desires; if it was only that uncomplicated. Life has found that without struggle there is no growth. Without growth there is no motion, without which one stands still, stuck to the same spot, not developing. It is in our human nature to evolve, and without it we find ourselves completely depressed and drained of energy for life. It is the feeling of indifference that is the fall of our spirit, not the one of sadness. If one has ever experienced such indifference and apathy, one thinks wisely not to escape rain when it pours. If one stands strong during the storm, comprehending it's purpose, the sun will return, even perhaps in the company of a rainbow.
To truly understand the greatness of nature one must encounter every face of it and accept all feelings thrown our way; even the tedious ones. By bravely experiencing all the unpleasant emotions, one learns to define and recognize the greats. That is an important part of life. So, board that train. It is what is right, you know this. Allow all emotions to enter your body, realizing how affected you have been by what is to become past; a sign that one has fully lived. Smile at the realization, embrace the fear and keep on boarding. The train will take you to foreign lands where you will find yet another side of yourself. And as the great Oscar Wilde said "The aim of life is self-development. To realize one's nature perfectly - that is what each of us are here for". Understanding the well hidden truth of life, facing challenge after challenge, one will find that truth and peace is rewarded to every perseverant soul. Don't give in to fear, keep bording trains and never stop gazing into the promising sky that is your future.
