The moment in which joy is born

One day, one moment lives up to our soul’s strongest desire. No bells ring in celebration, no stars shoot to mark its fulfillment. But the right chord is struck; the music of our life–for that moment–is composed. Our heart runs amok as soon as this realization comes about. It wants to hold on to the joy; craves to live it over and over. From the womb of joy is born a new world; a storehouse of new stories; a place where fairytales grow. This imaginary world gives us what the real world can’t offer. Both worlds co-exist; one springs up in thoughts, other complies with physical laws. The euphoria of the imaginary world conquers the hardships, betrayals, and hopelessness of this world. The two worlds strike a balance, and we go on living. Our madness passes unnoticed, and we remain of this world.
