Being a deep thinker and as observant as I am, I often find things and notice things around me differently. I think sometimes, in our day-to-day lives we often miss out on things that matter, things that we often forget or take for granted because of the fast pace living. To me, for some reason, the world itself is calling, seemingly talking itself through signs and signals, wanting to speak out, pointing directions where I should be or where I should not be. A guiding light to the blinding worldly desires. In this way, I still am able to see the balance of my own reality, what to do, and what not to do.
Stop
You probably have been working for the longest time now, do you still remember your goals back when you first started your adult life? hence have you achieved it? or have you been in a constant loop of the rat race that was created for us? Most of us are just trapped in such a way that we live to work and totally forget that the true goal was supposedly *work to live*. We are but human, our vessel has its own limitation, and once our vessel worked out too much we go haywire, overdrive, and break out. Most often we get sick, stressed out, and go into a depressive state. I believe everyone should always keep in mind to hit the pause button, contemplate, reassess, look back, check the present, and be in the state of stillness. Sometimes we need to drop whatever it is we are doing for others and create a space for ourselves, to breathe, to feel, to hear our own, with this we can keep our sanity at its best place, and remember we are not a machine.
Look
Don't be afraid to halt. Think of it in a way of when you're riding a train, or a plane, or a car, where you're just a passenger, where all you can do is look and observe the passing reality, regardless if it's a slow-moving cloud, rows of building, a homeless dude knocking on your window asking for alms, it will only prove one thing "You can only control what's within you and your reach". Sometimes we just have to be an observer not an absorber of the outside world, and by "world", I meant us as individuals. It is the best place for self-reflection and appreciation of the reality we live in. Accepting that problem is just a part of the whole, and the other half is our solution, we then forge a solitude and fortitude of the strength of our own thought processes. Some of us only see the ugly in this world, some only see the beauty, and some understand that one cannot exist without the other. There is more to this world than what we know, with the eye of curiosity and wonder, if we open ourselves enough to new experiences and expect nothing but just that, then maybe, we'll be happier, we'll be more whole, and cover all those holes that we used to create like a self-inflict pain, that damage us deeper than what we thought of. Life is beautiful, and it's best celebrated with another soul, whether it's your partner, your pet, your friends, or some random person you met along the road of life.
Listen
Do you realize how noisy our world has been? Deafening pollution here and there, most especially when you live in a city combined with yourself being caught up with work deadlines, dealing with your personal problems with family, friends, or lover, and at the same time being bombarded with the world's problematic feed on your social media, on your television. and this is being fed to us every waking day. Isn't crazy that it's all set up that way? we probably live in a different area code, and different states, with different laws, beliefs, different priorities, and realities, but still, it seems all the same. But are we really listening to our inner selves? or are we being led to thoughts that are not our own? Isn't it some sort of a hive mind that things or something make us want to think something to react to their narrative? Somehow it is so noisy that our thoughts are being jumbled and because of we tend to be lost in this void of thoughts, and I think the best approach to all of this is by getting away from all of it, picking ourselves out of the crowd, and be still we can find our true thoughts, sometimes being one with nature, traveling alone, hearing the crickets the deafening silence of mother earth can give us clarity and understanding how true peace of mind is, how we can find our purpose and just be us.
