The Detonator

The coming together of two individuals to weave a new life of existence as one, creating new members of the society that would eventually walk a similar path is a mystery unfolding and presenting itself in different fashion almost always. Collaborators conveniently named as fate, destiny, choice, love, divine intervention and fidelity give rise to complexities such as commitment, relationship, an understanding, marriage and family. People’s understanding of all these pulsating words is often vague while emotions take the lead and mediate on incongruity.

Watching relationships inspire and destroy people is the same as watching a war film where it usually begins with scenes depicting each soldiers happy life with their family and friends, establishing how ideal and content they are. You are left there in dismay as you watch each noble man, with dreams of their own, march to combat and breathe their last as the film comes to an end. Memories are the only remnants and tears from the heart because of the hurt and loss.

If there could only be a way to recognize the face of the enemy then it could be prevented. If only it is possible to cover all perimeters and ensure the safety of each relationship towards the end of its journey, there could be no end to the bliss.

Judging the stability of each union from the length of togetherness each couple had lasted is the weakest aspect. There are multiple reasons why people decide to stay intact for a number of years and these reasons do not always point to an objective purpose. Reasons that benefit third party, kith and kin, status quo of participants involved, career and ambitions really do not count as objects of choosing to be together for mutual happiness.

Age and maturity has always been relative. Relativity really leads to more ambiguity and less actual point that could be worked on. This aspect is more of a dead end. The choices are simply to back it up and find another way out of a web of vagueness with the hope of finding what you are searching for or go straight into the void and remain in the abyss, not knowing what went wrong until the end of time and settle there. It is mostly the resort of cowards and for a loss of better word, losers.

It therefore renders this whole analysis into another dead end, an endless nothingness of no reason and clarity. Still the outcome of a blossoming event cannot be predetermined even with systematic study of logic, psyche and reasons. A voice without a sound form a silent but firm command to simply let the beauty of love and intellect unfold on its own and discover the meaning of the whole lot along your journey.
