The first thing I was told when I started writing was to put less of my thoughts out there because sometimes people out there just can’t understand. So naturally, what I want to do first is just share a few thoughts.
When I was a kid, I don’t think I would’ve imagined myself in the position that I’m in right now. There’s just no way I could have ever convinced myself of what I have done right now. Of course, there are times I catch myself wishing I was doing what others were doing, but like it or not, I don’t believe there’s anybody in the world who doesn’t wish that at times. Comparison is something that I’ve learned to get over. But it’s really hard to push it away every now and then. At some point when you’ve gotten a taste of everything, the next thing just doesn’t feel like anything. I think there are times where I have a checklist for just about everything and whether I like it to admit it or not, and the checklist always keeps growing and growing. It never stops, it’s like a hamster wheel. The older I’ve gotten and the more experiences I’ve dealt with, I find that it’s silly to be this way. There comes a point in time where you can’t always find the bad in what’s good for you. There is such thing as enough and continuing to look for something better can almost always be a mistake. I still think there’s a very thin line between settling for what you have and continuing to ask for more. At the end of the day you can always give more and if you don’t think you’re capable, then you’re doing it wrong. I guess it’s just up to you to know when you’re actually settling and when you’re being difficult. May you find the ground you need to get to.
