Life & Lies


08091702


A life built on top of lies is a lie. Lies can be lived, but they cannot be enjoyed. They might please, but they won’t satisfy. Because they’ll always bring along, at least to the sufficiently aware, a sense of having cheated it to the achievement. Continue reading Life & Lies

Choose Your Battles


16081702


Choose your battles. You needn’t fight all those that come your way. Some are far more useful to you and your purpose than are others.

If you fight every battle, you have little left for the war. Save yourself for the war. Life demands you invest yourself wisely.

The Eternal Spring

What are you running after? Does the pursuit provide you peace? Will achievement provide you satisfaction? How long might the peace, or satisfaction last?

Life. A mad rush from winter to summer. In the hope of eternal spring.

A New Life

Don’t count your blessings. You won’t remember them. Not unless you want to feel grateful. Count your strengths. You’ll be reminded of them whenever you need to feel strong, or peaceful.

Growth needs time. Don’t rush it. It needs nutrition. Feed it new knowledge, new experiences. It needs a helpful environment. Find it peaceful places, and nice people. Continue reading Growth, Not Time, Heals

A Once In Forever

Add: ‘loss’, ‘reduced ability’, ‘history’

You are not one in a million. You are once in forever. You won’t happen again. That’s why you must exert to extract all you can from your time here. That’s why you must not let anything—pain, heartbreak, failure—anything, keep you still too long. Pause if you must, but don’t stop.
