Be a little flexible. Extreme rigidity sometimes make it impossible to accomplish the goals you set out to accomplish. There is no point in making your life hell just to get somewhere faster. There is no shame in being patient enough to find an easy way. Doesn’t mean you are lethargic, it just means you are resolute.

desperate

the world around me
crumbling carelessly
and there i stand
on the edge of despair
who am i if all is lost
why am i the one still
here and now as it ends
lone, sad and mourning
should i feel guilty
of making it all the way
or should i rejoice
for i am still standing
maybe i should look closer
as the world still spins
and it’s me alone, gone
clinging to hope
Erratic Thoughts # 5
When faced with stupidity, the best course of action, is inaction. For it’s impossible to make sense to people who have made up their mind.
Erratic Thoughts # 4
Following a goal you have set for yourself is not always going to be easy. But that doesn’t give you the right to stop trying and give up. You owe it to yourself to push through. Success needs sacrifice.
Erratic Thoughts # 3
The best part of communication is learning truly, the person on the other side.
Temptation
The temptation to just let go of all the hard work I put into my well being sometimes becomes overwhelming. It’s too easy to give up. I find myself asking – craving for the things I promised to stay away from. But I have to go on. It’s important for me to stay on the path if I want to be successful. I have to remind myself to be patient. Yes, it’s tough. But it is achievable. It’s not rocket science. I need to remind myself that success demands sacrifice. I need to be strong.
Erratic Thoughts # 2
The more you aspire to understand something, you understand one thing, you understand nothing.
worthless?
am i worthless now
to be discarded heartless
never to be remembered
ever again
what used to be confidence
is replaced with fear
all these eyes can see now
is failure
am i worthless now
with the world moving on
why would they have space
for news old
with these feet shaking
but with a mention of fate
seemingly agreeing
they can’t dance anymore
am i worthless now
for the truth is clear
what was once a legend
is lost forever
Plight of failure
What is happening to me? My enthusiasm is wearing off. My hope is flickering fast. I am not able to see a recourse that I can take now. I am in this domain for the long haul. But nothing seems to be happening. I am in the same position as I was 365 days ago. I seem to have wasted a year of my life pursuing absolutely nothing. Am I in the right hands? Or am I being played with? I don’t know how much I know about my domain. I don’t know how much I need to know about my domain. I have blindly given the reigns of my life into someone elses’ hands. And now those hands seem concerned about other things, forgetting me. And I have no clue where I should go. Everywhere I look, I see darkness. How could I be so naive? I should have taken control of my life ages ago. Instead I let someone do that. The depressed nature of my being is disheartening even to others now. I see pitiful eyes staring at me. Random voices giving me advise. I see judgement in the eyes of complete strangers. I am absolutely clueless right now. And this is making me more nervous. Retreating me into a shell. I can’t seem to focus. Because I don’t know where to focus. How can I redirect my energy somewhere if I don’t know where somewhere is?
