Scripted

From Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction" to Kanye's "interruption," everything seems so pre-meditated. What would happen if true chaos were to arise? Life. Life is what's happening when the tele-prompter fails, when the actor adlibs the next line, when the dancer misses the next step. Life is not perfect nor predictable (unless you make it that way). Life is an experiment, and a series of trials and errors. So we can continue to dwell upon the scripted life and act as if it means something, or we can simply go with the flow and appreciate the ups and downs we experience and take all we can from them. We proclaim we love life, when times are good. A minute later when things turn sour, we claim life isn't fair, or we hate life, or kill me now. This bi-polarity of thinking further reflects the complexities that real life has to offer, but whatever the situation may be, that's life. Embrace it.
