"You can waste your time drawing lines or you can live your life crossing them"
Meredith Grey, Greys Anatomy
Everyday, we make decisions. Whether to step or not to. Whether to run or not to. Whether to eat alot and regret or maintain a healthy diet. Whether to sleep early or late. Whether we realise it or not, we do make alot of decisions a day. And as an ordinary creature, we tend to draw lines in making decisions. Well drawing lines is of course a good practice so we dont go overboard in certain things. But people sometimes draw too big a line that they cant even live their lives. This is when drawing lines is good but only to some extent.
Lets say for instance, in relationship. You love that someone yet you are scared to say it out loud. Maybe for the sake of your friendship. Or maybe to avoid self embarrassment? Or you are just not ready to be rejected and heartbroken. But your heart keeps on pushing you to just go for it. Call him! Text him! Make surprises! Sometimes we think too much of little things like this. You greet him first, he thinks you're friendly, you sit next to him, he thinks you like him. You say you like him, he thinks you're too easy. You say you hate him, he thinks you’re arrogant. You express your love, he thinks you're cheap. With all those in mind, things will eventually get complicated when they are actually not.
You can keep on drawing lines, but sometimes you have to try crossing them. You wont know how sweet the sugar is if you don’t taste any. You have to get yourself drowned a few times before you can start swimming. Well at least I have crossed mine. Quite a few times actually. Sometimes both ways. Regrets and stupid moments, they passed. Enjoying life, that’s exactly what I am doing.
Don’t think too much. Your life your way, after all you’re the one driving it. Follow your heart, pursue your dreams. Just go! Seriously.
Cross the line.
