Pausing in Present


Not one person has asked me if I have been okay in the last six months or so and that's okay because they don’t really have to…..life seems too fast-paced and no one has any time to pause, just look maybe smile ask some questions just because they felt like it and quiet honestly, pausing is looked down upon…so fair enough, people hustle…they try to grind themselves until there’s nothing left of them and then one feels like it is too late to reconstruct.

Whereas in reality, my friend, it can never be too late to reconstruct…doesn’t matter your circumstances doesn’t matter how everyone around feels about you….all you need is a strong reason, a hope to better yourself for…..and that one reason needs to be the strongest ever….it needs to be unwavering, not temporary cause once you have put in the effort and the reason vanishes you are going to feel the worst and sometimes worthless….. it's funny how much our own opinion gets shaped by or rather dependent upon someone else’s views about us.

But sometimes it sucks….there are days when you are all by yourself hoping for some companionship and when you can’t find any, you will feel frustrated and it’s only natural…human nature we excuse it as. There are times when you get sick and have to lie in bed for a week or so and you would want a hearty chat after maybe some laughs and a bit of nostalgic memories to whine about and those are days when we crave for human interaction instead of our usual furry friends..although the reason why we prefer them should have become pretty clear by now…..they know how to live in the present.

That’s all for today and you will learn to trust yourself once you get alive in the present.
