I remember starting college and I asked my friend what her secret to success was. She told me perseverance. I have been familiar with perseverance. Mastered it? One day. Or so I thought.  One can’t say they mastered perseverance. For if they have, it is then never used ever again. Perseverance is continuous, immortal, and revolving. My perseverance will thrive on hardship and will remember what it is like to not give up. As I age so will it. Older, wiser, and more experienced.

You must be completely awake in the present to enjoy the tea. Only in the awareness of the present, can your hands feel the pleasant warmth of the cup. Only in the present, can you savor the aroma, taste the sweetness, appreciate the delicacy. If you are ruminating about the past, or worrying about the future, you will completely miss the experience of enjoying the cup of tea. You will look down at the cup, and the tea will be gone. Life is like that. If you are not fully present, you will look around and it will be gone. You will have missed the feel, the aroma, the delicacy and beauty of life. It will seem to be speeding past you. The past is finished. Learn from it and let it go. The future is not even here yet. Plan for it, but do not waste your time worrying about it. Worrying is worthless. When you stop ruminating about what has already happened, when you stop worrying about what might never happen, then you will be in the present moment. Then you will begin to experience joy in life.

My house. My center.
Lately the comfort of my thoughts have not been so enjoyable to hear. I’ve come to recognize the repetition of unwanted pessimism and suffer from its existence. What about me has gotten so stale? What am I becoming? With the actions to prove it I configured the acceptance of being a grouch. Instead of tracing the root of this insidious mental psych I should resort towards warmer perspective. That way trouble can be left at the door step. I don’t enjoy being a grouch.

Focus less on the job and more on your actual purpose behind it. Don’t get caught up in anyone else journey. remember why you started yours.

I’m sure there are others like me.
Strong introvert, well-rounded ambivert, and extrovert upon choice. My sanctuary are in those moments where my conscious is clear and emotions placid. But somedays my sanctuary can be lonely and cries for company only echo. We give ourselves choices and I’m afraid I’ve chosen to only hear echoes.
