A Distinctive Lexicon of Discipline

I can’t believe it’s weekend already, the busy week has hardly been noticed as if it were like yesterday when, I started tidying up my room upstairs. Other commitments rolled in on weekdays; pastoral ministry, running some errands, homebound visits, writing and reading, spiced up the main preoccupations that made sense to the so-called system. Long into the night, thinking what to write, I struggled to make a reflection; with a great deal of time and inspiration, I got to know my sense of focusing. Like playing any musical instrument, there’s discipline, time, and inspiration that enables one to play with assurance – with depth and beautiful tone to keep. For some it can be a crazy week with all those things to attend to enough to saturate my strength, energy; I continue to live with hardly anxiety. On certain aspects of discipline, there’s always a challenge that goes with it; its affinity to sense of focusing, repetition; provides a firm, solid foundation. I remember those performers in the field of music, arts or sports; discipline is like a fodder, a vital part - to attain success in their respective craft. Therefore, each day has to be fulfilled with certain discipline and focusing though problems come along the way; It’s a matter of conviction and determination.
