We honestly suck (sometimes)

We honestly suck (sometimes)

I'm sure it has happened with you, when you're late for work/study and everything just happens to slow you down.

The train? Late.

The bus? Late.

You? Obviously, you're the one responsible. 

We feel everything's wasting our precious moments and are out to get us. But if we just pause for a bit from the chaotic loop in our minds, it dawns upon us that we're the ones rushing. Nobody is our enemy and nobody's out there to execute us.

This might also make us feel that our luck is like rotten bananas, and it always happens to us and as if we're battling the world with no armour on.

And that's why we turn blind

And that's why we turn blind

And cause you're stuck in this black hole of negative emotions, you might miss that everything is actually working out. It's as if God's saying, Oh you got up late? Don't worry I got you.

And because we're in this rush and adrenaline spiking through us (I don't know which brain chemical), we think that the bus and train and whatever is the one who isn't on time. When in reality, it came pretty early than it usually does. 

Same for opposite? When we're not under pressure, our minds work autopilot, and that's the reason we don't realize that everything's going smoothly.

Cause we're used to this.

The hypocrisy guys

The hypocrisy guys

We have the audactiy to question God on why he keeps testing us. But have we just taken a moment out to thank him when everything's just sliding like melted butter?

And that we even noticed it in the first place?

We got late, and apparently everything else did too. We blame God and every other thing we can.

We're in our own lalaland when the day started well, and did you realize that everything around us is just clicking into place? And because it's going so smoothly and without any problems, we think it's us who's credible for it and not the God we always blame everything else for.

It's that simple

It's that simple

Tell me, why don't we ever just get the thought that today went well and there might be someone behind it? As there is always someone or the other behind the misfortunes. 

It's because we're so full of complains and we never focus on what's actually benefitting us. That one bad event weighs us down and distracts us from all the good things that came out of it. 

And that's the reason we should journal down one thing we're grateful for everyday. Cause then we start living and not existing. 

We turn into someone and not just a lost soul.

Ps: I put the owl there cause it looked cute.
