The clock reads 5.33am and my body refuses the to be lull into the dark embrace of sleep. Guess is the 2 cups of tea I had during supper just now. As it is the case for me, when I am unable to sleep, my mind will just be on auto pilot as I ponder over my thoughts and ideas. Which brings me here to blog about some of the going on in my head =D
I have often been describe as laid-back, relaxed or happy go lucky by those who are more kind, and have been called a slacker, aimless idler among many others by those who are less kind. All are true as I slowly amble through the day. Here is why I do so, in my eyes, life is a long journey. Too often, I feel that we are blinded by where we want to go that we forget to take care of ourselves as we get there.
You can set many goals in life, which are akin to destinations during your journey through life. You rushed through life as you struggle to reach your destinations as quickly as possible. In your single-minded pursuit, you will tend to lose sight of the scenery along the way. When you reach your destination, there is every chance that you may not like the destination where you are at.
Personally, I would rather travel at a steady pace. Fast enough to reach my destination in good time, yet slow enough to enjoy the sights and sounds along the way. That way when you realize your desired destination ain't that great. You could still take away the sights and sounds of the journey.
Everything will come, in good time, with a little luck and hard work. I would place more emphasis on the "good", rather than the "time". =D
