At 23 I realize,
Probably later than most
but maybe earlier than a few,

Life is not black and white,
not right and wrong,
not good and evil,
not easy and hard.

Life is gray and colorful,
rules on top of nonsense,
a comedic tragedy,
a tragic comedy,
simple at its core yet complex in all the details.

Life is a tight rope
And I’m the tightrope walker.
Trying to balance work with rest,
Freedom with responsibility,
Self-lessness with self-fishness,
Assertiveness with humility,
Seriousness with carefreeness.

I’ll probably never get to the other side of the rope,
But I’m grateful for the chance to try.
