In light of dark times there's light. Feeling of love & beauty. Reconnecting with someone becomes a breathe of fresh air. Old emotions arise & memories that was trashed has been recovered. Hopes & possibilities are then projected into the world for a new & better quality of life.


The idea of butterflies in the stomach is maybe what's it called. Feeling like you want to be with someone & discover who they are & what makes them who they are. Choices are made to progress your time with them. A rush of dopamine activates in the brain & you start to see things. Not sure it's called blinded love but it's a weird feeling.



Not sure if it's common or not but you develop a fictional checklist to work off of to make sense of them being the right one. You proceed with cautious but when things start getting checked off you let your guard down & the heart takes over.


You begin to ignore any potential red flags & start to imagine how they fit into your life. At the same time you test your own limits of what you can do & what you're resistant of. You're blinded by unknown happiness that you don't acknowledge your own hurdles that you've made. The challenges that you push yourself through just to adhere to the other.

By promoting ones growth for the sake of another isn't something that should always be done. Things like this can happen when you're blinded and full of the flutter. Like a princess mushroom from Mario Kart a constant flux of adrenaline engulfs the body & you go through the emotions of it all. In moments of it all the feeling starts to interfere with your current lifestyle. Consuming your being thoughts infiltrates the mind. Every decision then becomes a consideration of the other.


Seeing things like a hallucination words like idol & love crashes through the cortex where my ability to make decisions is replaced. Most of the time questioning reality comes up a lot but the feeling could just promote desperation in what's needed. You put your all just to feel because you deserve it.

Just like a high or a blackout you wake up as if you just had a dream. You check things to confirm & believe that what happened wasn't a mistake. You find a future that is possible & come to realize that what's been happening has been an inception of the mind. A butterfly effect that's been caused by a single interaction. An experience of a single sided prefix. A self afflicted notion to benefit ones own self like a bee to honey.


But like a butterfly, we are reborn, breakout of our cocoon. Emerge from the emotions & hardships to find more of who we are. The butterflies doesn't last but it last enough for us to feel. To experience what's it like to be in this moment. To find if it's new or if we are used to what is. I find myself coming to terms that these butterflies give proof of my existence. Proof of what is felt is real & valid.

Just like a butterfly effect when one thing triggers another this could be the chain reaction that builds to something greater. In this state by just accepting it & adapting it for optimal learning I can be present in what happens. So I'll leave it at this, butterfly effect can trigger something wonderful & once acknowledged we can progress to something wonderful. The butterflies in the moment isn't to be ignored but praised & momentarily flourished for peace & love.
