Lately
The world around me has been filled with such violent highs and lows. Sometimes I can’t even catch my breath, as a wonderful celebration is ripped from me and I fall into the same habits. The habits that get me down, the ones that blur my vision, that allow me to miss all of the amazing things life has to offer. I can’t rid myself of them and they seem to steadily grow. I sweat the small stuff, I fear the big stuff. I’m an emotional HOT MESS.
I concern myself with pointless things, but these things seem so necessary. These are the things that I enjoy and care about. So what am I to do?
My loved ones, both by blood or otherwise are in a state of war. They, like myself, are battling their inner demons, so that they may find their mantras. Sometimes we come off as too arrogant, while our only aim is to discover and learn from others, not to put them down. We could all benefit from being better listeners.
All I can do is work slowly and be proficient at what I do. Hopefully, at the end of this battle, I am the victor and we’ll all see what I’m really about.
