I've got to admit there's something soothing about writing. It's like escaping all the trouble of life for a couple of minutes, then you feel your worries going with each word you write (must be because you're placing your mind somewhere else, honestly).
My dad always told me not to focus solely on the tree but on the whole forest behind it too. Basically, to deal with what's making you worry you have to try to look at it from another perspective, take yourself out of the situation and consider judging it from an objective point of view. There's always a bigger reason behind all of our issues, our job is to find the root of it all. The easier way? The traditional way. But since I, personally, am not all for sharing your problems with the closest people you know, I opt for writing them on paper instead, or just try to list them in my head.
It's important to acknowledge what you're doing wrong, otherwise you are just going to keep doing more wrong and we all know there's only one way everything will go from that point on. We certainly can live most of our lives in denial, yet we'll never really feel truly satisfied until we solve our inner problems and come to peace with ourselves. At this point this just feels like I'm letting out a bunch of random thoughts that don't even make sense anymore.
On that note, who said every entry needed a conclusion?
Anyhow, reflections don't conclude nicely the same day you start thinking about them in real life and this blog is based on real life, which is why I'm leaving this sporadic observations to take place some other night when my brain and my emotions find the time to align once again on this topic.
Witty, intelligent, and amazing punctuation. “Not to focus solely on the tree but on the whole forest behind it too.” Impressive, once again. Hardly a failed blogger, if you ask me. Merely, a great one who has yet to be recognized for her skill.
