Whenever one builds a sand castle at the beach they really put their effort into it. Despite the heat and coarseness of the sand, they keep on building till it’s finished. Even if it is a simple little piece of work, it can be frustrating when it suddenly shakes and crumbles back to being plain old sand. You breathe a deep sigh after going through all that work just to see come undone. Seeing things fall apart like that reminds me of the song “Come Undone” by Duran Duran.
One of the painful realities about life is that nothing is permanent and when change comes, it comes when you least expect it. It is even more difficult when you finally found what you’re looking for or finished completing your ideal life. All of a sudden, something happens and it all goes down the drain. All that hard work gone in an instant and just when you think you wouldn’t want anything more. It is really one of life’s most cruel jokes.
Well, like sand, if there is life, then there’s hope. You just have to put a little more effort and start over. I know it’s a bummer but it’s either that or curl up and die. I have no intentions of doing the latter. Still, even if it is water under the bridge, it still stings when you think about what was lost. It really hurts when it comes undone.
