“If I were the rain, that binds together the heavens and the earth,
whom in all eternity will never mingle, would I be able to bind two hearts
together?”
The thought of wishing to be more than what is commonly described
what one is easily derived to be. This mindset longer happens to be a common
thing. I do not say that there is an increasing scarcity of young, confident
individuals with fire in their belly and killer instinct to excel. I am
pointing at the same swarm’s inclination to grow. Grow in areas that need working.
Sophistication of the soul needs
evolution in the emotional tangent. For a person to grow, grow they must in
three dimensions, not two.
Physical, intellectual and emotional.
In times where escapism is the common way to
tackle conflicts, Emotional growth is only becoming a farce. Escapisms thrown at
us by the modern life can be so mundane and so cleverly disguised that we even
fail to observe them. A person facing an emotional conflict now wishes to
broadcast his thoughts and derive sympathy, rather than tackle it in his or her
own way. Choosing to not discuss of an ailing topic was once a way to contemplate and reach the solution of their own. It is now way a to escape
the emotional conflict that entails it and the unique opportunity life presents
at us.
A smooth sea never
makes a sailor skillful. When one finds himself in a fix, if they choose to
share what’s in their mind to someone near and dear, it might seem quite common
place. But think of it this way. What if there was no such person to share your
situation with? What would you do? Tackle it yourself or, let the matter aside
and let life go on? That is the escapism I intend to make my point with. It
needn’t be a person. It could be something as mundane as the internet or a
drinking binge. A quick fix. A temporary
relief from a growing gangrene. Tackling the unrest mind’s concern is
difficult but important. This is what helps one evolve truly and nurture
them to succeed wholly. If we let the unrest grow, it will only mutate and turn
into a monster that would not allow you to be sufficient for yourself. Imagine
you needing another’s company when you have yourself to be with.
A wise Japanese scholar once said:”When you are young, learn
to work, not to earn. Money will come with emotional growth that fuels success”Fight
with all you’ve got. Limit life to what it has to offer. Let not tiny obstacles
cripple you. Falter not till the goal is met. Make your own luck J
