Adulthood is most times tricky. This is something I’ve figured out long before now, but then experiencing it firsthand now just kind of gave me that deju vu feeling. I know life can’t always be a bed filled with roses, which is exactly why i always prepare my mind for all possible outcomes, whilst i try to always stick to the positive ones. I guess that’s one of the advantages of becoming an adult at a quite young age, which is something I’ve always been proud of, especially with the fact that it kind of prepared me for the real adulthood journey before it actually came. I’m happy I learnt this very early, I don’t really get fazed by it anymore. Once the feeling becomes overwhelming and extremely exhausting, i think about it for a while trying to figure out any humanly possible solution, but if i see it’s something beyond me, i say some prayer to the LORD’s hearing, eating something and get some sleep. At the end of the day, things always work out fine…
A QUIET TIME…
Honestly, the last time i had a quiet time was “always” (a couple of hours ago). Oh yeah, always, and that’s because i take a couple of minutes to think about certain aspects of my life always, regardless of how busy i am. The weight of my feelings determines the amount of time i spend to reflect on my life each day. Reflection is not for everyone, it is mostly for those with a conscience and a purpose. Daily reflection has been my thing from way back, although it became an important part of my life since I started staying and surviving alone…
The last time i observed, analyzed and studied the different aspects of my life was two days ago. I had to take a long one two days ago for a couple of reasons. On a normal day, my hour of reflection has always been focused on how to make a change. It has always been about doing the right things at the right time, and changing my story for the better, not excluding the areas of mistakes and how to correct them moving on for a better future outcome…
My hour of reflection mostly reflects on a bad day, while on my happy days it’s just some slight thoughts here and there, and that’s me trying to take a little stroll around the happenings of that particular day. Meditation has never been my thing, i’m the kind of guy that reflects on himself daily…
I mostly listen to my thoughts when i’m by myself or mostly on my EarPods and a reflective music is being played beneath. Things like this take me on a journey of self exploration and understanding. I get to analyze every aspects of my life to know that which I’m doing wrong or right and how i can keep the positives coming…
I reflect on myself occasionally, like i do it from time to time, but then it hits differently on a very bad day. This habit has really helped me in diverse ways, especially when it comes to handling life’s challenges and struggles. Reflection is what keeps me afloat and motivates me to find a solution. It gives me a reason to keep hanging on…
My personal relationship with people has improved thanks to this habit. The progress might look microscopic, but then I promise you it works. Constant reflection shapes your mind and way of thinking, and that to in unique ways, this is something only a few people can relate to and i am part of that very few people who can relate to it…
In conclusion, this habit is ON, it’s a forever thing, which means i’m never giving up on it. As long as it makes me a better version of myself always, i will always keep a minute or two of my time daily to reflect on my life…
