Explore, Evolve, Live.

© Apoorv Vikas

I needed to make a move.
I had no move to make.
Then I asked myself, “Did I explore?”

I saw what was available.
I saw it wasn’t compatible.
Maybe I needed to make it so.
Maybe I needed to make myself so.
Then I asked myself, “Did I explore?”

Maybe a path began elsewhere.
Maybe it was here but I was elsewhere.
Or perhaps I needed to change my walk.
I thought, “Did I explore?”

I wanted to start something; but didn’t.
I started something to finish it; but couldn’t.
Maybe I started wrong.
Maybe I started right; but worked wrong.
Or perhaps I perceived the goal incorrectly.
I understood, “Did I explore?”

I accomplished some goals. I was happy.
New ones sparked in mind. I was ambitious.
I started enthusiastically.
I failed miserably.
Maybe I assumed helpful tools of past would yield same results.
Then I realised new tasks call for new tools.
Or perhaps same tools could be used differently.
I processed, “Did I explore?”

Life arrived at a location.
Some paths have been traversed.
Some remain.
These days I don’t wait for failure.
These days I begin hunting new right away.
I’ve learned to be at it.
Any time. All the time.
To explore is a two-way task.
I need to look outside, and within too.
But most important:
To explore is a continuous task.
It helps.
