I took a morning walk. This morning it wasn't raining nor was it too bright. Like cloudy. I walked around the beautiful natural blessings in my village.
I walked slowly near the pond with lotus plants in it. I stared at the lotus flowers in the process of blooming for quite a long time.
From those lotus flowers I got a philosophy of life. To make me excited, and of course I hope you can also take positive things from my writing.
Everything has its own time. When I feel too hard on myself because I failed to achieve my goals, I always remember that. That indeed each thing has a different time, especially for us to have our own time to shine.
But unfortunately sometimes we are too busy comparing. Because there are so many posts on social media that are very toxic. People on social media are not perfect, they are just busy pretending to be perfect.
Just like flowers that do not bloom at the same time. So do humans. The time for one person to succeed in achieving something is definitely different. That would actually make the world more beautiful. Just imagine if everyone succeeded at the same time, of course nothing would feel special.
With the difference in time, the difference in distance traveled and the type of path taken by someone to achieve success, it would provide a different sensation of experience for each person. Of course, it would make this world feel more exciting!
I continued my journey around this pleasant nature. Here the rice plants began to produce rice. You can see the rice plants bending down which indicates that the rice can be harvested soon.
I am very happy to be here. I feel very calm with the green and yellowish rice fields and the pond area that has beautiful lotus flowers.
This makes me grateful for the moments now. So, when we are feeling down, try to walk around you and find something that can make you calm. When you feel calm, you will feel grateful.
Let's try to stay calm when facing unexpected situations in this life. I also always train myself to be ready to face unexpected things. And one of the most important things is to assume that we have our own destiny. We have our own paths that we must go through with our own time for us to shine.
Never feel hopeless if you see people around you who have already succeeded. You are always valuable in a decent place. If in a place you don't look valuable, then you can move and find something new to increase your value. Keep up the spirit! And I hope I can also apply this philosophy in my life. See you!
