Sometimes in my day to day life, i grumble and I sigh and mutter under my breath questions as to why things are the way they are. It’s as though there is a long winding road I walk down upon and I can never arrive at my destination. I find myself taking a Uturn, a left turn , a wrong turn that leads to a dead end, so I’m taking the long route. The slower route. But i believe , I so believe every choice you make in life, the decisions you face and the effort you put in to your everyday schedule is part of the whole journey, however long it takes. A journey one cannot escape from but live with the heart to embrace whatever they encounter in the adventure of life’s unexpected surprises.
Where there is peace in yourself, you can walk gracefully into a new day knowing everything will be okay.
Recently, I had a little panic moment, where a big mesh of emotions surfaced to the point I didn’t know how to articulate everything, and I felt burnt out from over thinking things, questioning things and constantly going round in circles, only to realise I harshly criticised everything , jump to crazy conclusions and put myself down. Do you experience these moments?
In the end, the air was clear through talking and hearing out someone who can understand. Afterwards, I felt better and by default I evaluate myself and how I can look beyond a negative cloud blinding my vision to what is true to me. I’m shifting my focus upon the good I have in life. What brings meaning to my life and how others have contributed to my day to day life in ways I cannot forget. Memories layered upon layers of memories threaded on a golden string creates a tapestry of colour and beauty, that is life.
When I walk into London to work, as I dodge my way past vast amounts of humans, each stride I take comes with a positive thought, driven by my will to seize the day and make it a day, as though a gift from Him upstairs, to feel open to obstacles that may be encountered, but above all immerse myself into bringing happiness into fruition, carrying the attitude all will be okay..all will be okay.
So all in all.. try to imagine you have a golden thread in your hand, and you take it wherever you go , each and every day this golden thread will trail behind you, at the end of this day you think of all the good things that have happened , however few or many, and attach them together by writing them down, sew them together with your imaginary golden thread and think how much beauty has come out of it all. You deserve to be happy. It just takes a lil bit of effort to spread a lil happiness, and it will come back to you. That is the beauty of life.
