Writing nonsense from within my mind

The journey on learning what I really am

Starting an online newsletter had always been on my mind for the past year or so, but coming up with something that I think comes of value to people is an unimaginable task to me (as I’m sure many would resonate with me). So, I decided to just write whatever the F comes to mind, but I want to keep this newsletter as real as possible, at least to me.

“The purpose of learning is growth, and our minds, unlike our bodies, can continue growing as we continue to live.”

Mortimer Adler

Is self recognition important to you? I know many people that think it is, but only when the situation suits them. What I mean is, people do not like to recognise WHAT they are when things are going downhill. When the rolling boulder which is themselves is about to hit rock bottom, most would settle with excuses or “reasons” or they would take the comforting of loved ones as a justification for failure (laziness in most cases….).

“It’s just bad luck, try again next time” I’m sure these things sound very comforting and it soothes the panic that is setting in the bottom of your soul. Don’t get me wrong, whoever says these things to you, never be unappreciative towards them. These people only comfort you because they want to see you succeed, and most importantly…they love you. But that’s not to say we just take their comforting at face value and leave it at that. They should be words that give you more motivation in the future to repay them for their love and encouragement. When you settle with solace and console, that is the time when the rock bottom that you had thought you hit digs deeper and deeper into the abyss.

It all sounds like a load of rubbish, but hey… its what’s on my mind. I will try to update this as much as I can as I think this is also a way for me to let off a lot of steam that I do not have the guts to share with the people around me verbally.
