Where is the Bottom?

"Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone, you may still exist, but you have ceased to live." Mark Twain

Our reality is one of our choosing... The day we believe that what we physically see cannot be altered by a simple thought believed, then it is at that point that we have reached the bottom. When you reach the point where there is no escaping from your reality, your existence becomes your imprisonment. Locked in a cage of the worlds choosing you must live by the means of which other provide. There is no choice, there are no options, there is only the day to day grind of life. But why complain, this is the life you chose, you are the one that settled for only what can be seen from your window. You are the one that let your dreams be murdered by reality and all the things that come along with it. It was you who chose the "easy" route, the path where only the minimal is required and you never will fall but so low and climb but so high. Risk it all and you may lose everything, true, but isn’t that better than residing to the fact that this is all there is? 

Where is the bottom? The bottom is a place void of hope, it is an "I don’t care attitude" about a life that offers three meals a day, a nine to five job, and a one bedroom apartment. The bottom doesn’t allow you to strive, it always discourages, never rewarding risks or faith filled leaps. When you find yourself pretending to be happy with the path of least resistance it is at that point that you have reached the bottom.

A dream believed can serve to alter the universe or change a life.
