Opportunity

 

There are two approaches that you can take to this trial of solitude

 

One is to make that solitude a punishment imposed on you

 

To be a prisoner, secluded from a world that you don’t deserve to live in

 

The sentence passed for the crime you didn’t commit

 

 

The other is to accept it as a trial

 

A proof to yourself of your commitment to what you believe

 

 

 

To survive this event, all you have to do is sit on the corner with your arms and legs folded

 

And wait

 

But it is not just the body that has to survive

 

The mind as to do so as well

 

 

It needs a stimulus

 

Something to fight for

 

Objectives to set yourself to

 

To push you forward

 

 

And where could they come from, you may ask

 

If you look closely, they are already exist

 

The things you said to yourself that you would do when you had the time

 

 

Learning a new language

 

Fixing the house

 

Finishing that puzzle that is kept on top of a shelf

 

Training that body of yours to reach the set of abs you always wanted

 

Trying out the toys that have been kept unused

 

Finding the special one to whom you would feel proud to use them for

 

 

 

It is true that you may not be able to meet Him now

 

It is true that you do not have the challenge of showing yourself to the world as a slave

 

 

But you have the chance to know what it is to live a life with only one focus

 

Sheltered from all other distractions that your life usually has

 

That you can truly be His in body and mind

 

 

Use this time to prove to yourself and to the one for whom you want to surrender

 

That you can make every moment of isolation

 

Into a task in His service

 

 

Perfecting yourself in every way

 

Being happy living only for Him

 

 

 

Making every second that passes a proof of your submission

 

Transforming that prison into your moment of release

 

Strengthening the bond of Master and slave

 

Not letting time and distance push you further apart
