From all the time to once a week,
From meetings to emails,
From calls to texts,
How does that happen?
From so close to secretive,
From acceptance to accusations,
From forgiveness to bitterness,
How does that happen?
From understand to confusion,
From laughter to silence,
From sureness to jealousy,
How does that happen?
From love to indifference,
From caring to convenience,
From best friends to acquaintances,
How does that happen?
You can’t dream too much or seek out like a toddler in a shopping mall. your insulating pessimism will strike your back even before you know it. so you will live, you will write, you will allow yourself to be read and marked and ranked criticized and sliced along every axis. they may even attempt to fit your humongous, insanely joyous and unpredictable future into little boxes on which would be written stuff like where do you see yourself in five years?
And so you will picture yourself in the coming years in numbers and qualifications and permanent mailing addresses because you have to.
6 years back , a journey began. A journey of personal development, awareness and twists and turns. I have learned, experienced, struggled, lost, succeeded and finally come home to me. It was a rough old ride at times, but I’ve discovered some pretty amazing things in the process:
- Communication has its limits.
- Listening is more difficult than talking.
- Fix situations, not people.
- Measure twice, cut once.
- Don’t believe all the nice things people say about you
- Don't lie, shut up when you have to
