It’s been a long time since I wrote on Hive. Even today, I don't have anything particular to talk or share about, but I had a resolve that today I am going to write about something that I will figure eventually once I get started. But, it does not seem like I am going to figure it out this way. Sometimes, you are just too occupied to do things you like, follow your goals, daily routines and similar. Even the title of this blog came up randomly on my mind.
Life has this quiet way of slipping into autopilot, one task after another, one deadline chasing the next. You wake up, do what needs to be done and before you realize, days have folded into weeks. The things that once made you feel alive start collecting dust at the corners of your mind.
Writing used to be one of those little escapes for me, a moment to pause and listen to my thoughts, even if they didn’t make perfect sense. But as the pace of life picks up, it’s strange how easily we forget to make time for the very things that help us make sense of it all.
Today’s post is less about a topic and more about a reminder that showing up matters. Even when you don’t have something grand to say. Even when the words don’t flow effortlessly. Sometimes, you just need to sit down, open the blank page and let the silence between thoughts spill out as words.
Because creativity doesn’t always arrive with clarity. It often comes disguised as confusion a faint nudge saying, “just start.”
From this, I remember a quote from Mark that Ideas never come up in a perfect structure, when you actually start working over them eventually they grow up and get bigger and bigger as well as better.
Maybe that’s what I’m doing right now, just starting again.
So here’s to showing up, to finding small bits of peace in doing something for yourself and to not letting the rush of life take away the moments that make you feel.
And maybe, just maybe, by the time I write my next post, I’ll have figured out what I really wanted to say today.
Winters are around the corner, the semester is about to come to an end. Today, this is one of those nights when I am in the mood of self introspection to quietly sit with my thoughts and trace back every decision I made and path I chose for myself. Maybe, they will take me somewhere I’ll like. Maybe not. For now, let's just enjoy the journey, Why to be worried about something I don't know or I am not sure of?
