The Paradox of the Sand

Countless in measure yet insignificant when left alone as a single grain. You get lost when you are in a crowd yet you feel lonely when left alone.

Food for thought:
"Belonging to ourselves means being called to stand alone- braving the wilderness of uncertainty." - Brene Brown

Good is the enemy of best.

How can we truly have the best if we always holds on to the good? Letting go can be the hardest but yet the most liberating thing to do.

Some of life's questions really don't come with easy answers. As a math teacher, I can provide so many solutions and answers to questions. Yet the most pertinent questions of all, I struggle to even start. The irony of life.

So now, I shall be more empathetic towards struggling kids. Haha!

Your thoughts define your experiences!

Sometimes you just need that lightbulb moment.

The Lord spoke to me today about being forward-looking. There are so many things that we can't change. Our past. What people thinks. The problems we have created. Rather than feeling sad or regretful, choose to live life forward. Learn whatever lessons life has taught us and grow as a person.

I know God has His perfect plan for me and for you. :)

Thoughts

Don't think positive. Think multiple possibilities.

Don't imagine your current state will get better. Imagine all the different ways your life can become. :)

Getting lost. Who doesn’t?

But I guess the most important is to find yourself back.

What are the things that make my heart skips? Make me so awake and energized despite little sleep I have? Give me the strength to go the extra mile? Make me feel like this world is a lot bigger than it is? Feel hopeful about the future?

While I enjoy routine(and that works pretty well with me), I dislike it when I think my world is just what it is now, so small, so predictable, so mundane. I'm sure there are experiences I have yet to enjoy, places I have yet to visit, people with different experiences I have yet to encounter.

Hmmm... so how now brown cow?

Gotta check off the list of things that is always on my mind but too lazy to do. Yes I should. Coz I know if today's the last day of my life, I'll sure regret big time.

Maybe maybe maybe... I should live like everyday is the last day of my life. Don't make a living. Don't just think of living through the day. Design a life that I want. Live that out.
