My couch, to be or not to be, that's the question. [Eng/Esp]

Obstacle to living

There it was, tempting again, waiting for me. I only had to take a few steps and our paths would cross once again… The day had been long, an extremely exhausting workday. I counted the hours, the minutes until I could leave that place and find comfort in the presence of him, who was waiting for me, perhaps a moment of rest, and then kick off a marathon night of watching TV series. One had recently come out, and I was encouraged to watch it. They said it had a good plot and was in my favorite genre, horror. Horror series are few and far between, so the intrigue made my attack easier…

Although I had already planned what to do on my way home. I only thought of one thing: throwing myself at him and letting him hold me forever, leaving all my problems, my tiredness, my failures, and my sorrows behind. It can't be ignored that even my plans and goals are forgotten when I'm with him.

That alluring moment is my corner of happiness; for many others, it's an obstacle to life, a mere couch, because it submerges you like a being who no longer thinks... perhaps, a zombie. I feel like getting rid of it and doing that thing all those successful people do... But tonight I'm tired and just want to throw myself on it one more time.

Obstáculo para vivir

Ahí estaba, tentador nuevamente esperándome, solo debía dar un par de pasos y nuestros caminos una vez más se estarían cruzando… El día había sido largo, una jornada de trabajo sumamente agotadora, contaba las horas, los minutos para salir de aquel lugar y reconfortarme junto a él que me esperaba, tal vez un momento de descanso, para luego darle rueda libre a una noche maratónica de series. Recientemente había salido una que me animaron a verla, decían que tenía una buena trama y era de mi género favorito, de terror. Las series de terror son pocas, así que la intriga hacía mi acometida más sencilla…

Aunque ya había planeado que hacer durante mi camino a casa. Solo pensaba en una cosa lanzarme contra él y dejar que me abrazara eternamente y dejar todos mis problemas, mis cansancios, mis fracasos y mis penas atrás; no se puede obviar también que hasta los planes y metas también se me olvidan cuando estoy con él.

Ese momento tan atractivo es mi rincón de la felicidad. Para muchos otros, es un obstáculo para vivir, un mero sofá, pues te tiene sumergido como un ser que ya no piensa… tal vez, un zombi. Me dan ganas de deshacerme de él y hacer ese algo que todas esas personas exitosas hacen... Pero, esta noche estoy cansado y solo quiero tirarme en él una vez más.
