Occupied

Whilst waiting for my friend to arrive for dinner, I thought I'd post something. It has been another low phase for me recently. I've been packing my schedule, or rather, the organisation that I work for, had been really active recently. Top it up with opportunities that are suddenly open to me, I feel like I'm being stretched thin. That which does not kill you serves to make you stronger. I will survive and emerge a stronger man (metaphorically speaking).

Talking about opportunities, it's weird in a way that when I was living a closed life, I never had much being offered to me outside. Now that my mind and body is willing to work, opportunities start coming in one after another. It is as though the universe knows that I am ready to open my path into the future having been unshackled.

The future is unknown, but having a direction and goals to work towards will undoubtedly have a higher rate of success and fulfilment compared to being complacent and staying in the same spot while the sands of time flow freely.

Chapter closing

Just packed my desk, and threw out two huge bags of rubbish. And along with that, unresolved issues and hopes. I think it's a timely end to this chapter, although no end is really immediate. The lines of one end and the beginning of a new chapter is often blurred, similar to the coming and going of different seasons. How this phase will work out is a whole new mystery waiting to unravel itself.

The symbolic representation of throwing out of stuff is powerful. All at once, I feel so empowered, and efficient. I feel like being productive and creating. I feel like working in something that I believe and have faith in. I feel alive, and I feel I have a purpose. It's funny how people usually say that they have to find their purpose in life. But ironically, your purpose finds you instead.

Drown out the negative people, those who think that their way of life is the only way, and you'll see for yourself that life is not that bad afterall. Only by refusing to harbor negativity, positive energy can be attracted and stored within you. Whatever comes from it is solely dependant on you.
