Random Finds

My life like now feels like a vast empty desert. And I am wandering like a lost child. Alone, surrounded by nothing but sand, looking for something, not really sure what, something other than the emptiness that surrounds me. I try to build sandcastles as I pass. So that there could be something in this vast nothingness.  I build castles small and big, with high roofs and towers, sometimes I build little sand people. I try to give life to this dead barren land. But with a gush of the wind, everything can be blown away. And when I look back, everything I built disappeared. Like it was never there. The places where the sandcastles where, are as empty as it was before.

 But I still try to move forward and continue to build some more. Even if it is knocked down everytime. I have to. Because it's the only thing other than me in this desert. Even if it could be gone with a blow of the wind, I still have to build it. Because it is something. And an ephemeral something is still always better than an eternal nothing.
