There is enough time for everything

A reminder

Any reminder is kind enough if you can understand its value based on the time you have left to complete the reminder’s job

And for a long time, I was always guided by reminders.

Reminders that life is short and I should be enjoying it more, that I stress too much about unnecessary stuff, reminders that I dream too much and act too little, reminders that even though it doesn’t seem like it, I am doing much better than I used to believe I could.

My life has been filled with small little mistakes that led me to the higher purpose behind making them.

But because I was driven to complete so many unchecked boxes, I had very little time to enjoy writing them.

And by this, I mean the undoubtful consequence of being present in the everyday unknown.

I was my own competition for so long simply because I always had this idea of being in control of my actions and the consequences they create.

Obviously, created out of a place called fear.

Many fears joined my pages in everything I ever wrote or created. I had so many backup plans for scenarios that were hardly realistic even for movie production.

And time flows differently when you dissociate from reality, only to build other ones in your head that keep your hands in the game, and your complete control over your own life in your reach.

I was so sure I could achieve everything that I forgot to achieve friendships and happiness in a genuine way.

And what do you do with deadlines you’ve missed?

You reprioritize the things you love without considering them painful.
