"Listen; there's a hell of a good universe next door: let's go." - E.E. Cummings
This must be my favorite quote that has ever existed. Not only is E.E. Cummings a mastermind of his own but he speaks the truth. I do not know if it is the excitement or mystery that intrigues me more about the next door. The horizon, the impossible, the unknown, the world beyond my surroundings, the mysteries that could unfold. Whatever it is, I do know, it's going to be good. Now isn't that a good outlook on life. Sure is better than expecting the worse. Now don't tell me you've never heard of "hope for the best and expect the worse." Forget that and follow this one, much better isn't it? Wouldn't you rather have a hell of a good universe instead of expecting the worse?
Now I'm not going to lie, we all just naturally expect the worse in things. I mean I am guilty of this act too, why be let down when you don't expect it at first? I'll make the promise today, everyone should follow.
I want to go to the unknown, I want to expect the best and hope for the best, I want to travel beyond my surroundings, and I want to go, I want to let go of everything and just go. It can be surprising, it can take me by surprise, or it can surprise my life. Either one of those, I will be satisfied. So for all of you reading this, there is a hell of a good universe next door. So let's go.
Life is good.
