The Thought of Quitting...
The thought every morning of having to get off from bed could be scary, sleeping sometimes is a fav for but regardless, I can’t afford to overlook the saying that poverty comes to those who sleep for an extra minute or two. It’s already troubling enough to realize that each time one is awakened from his temporary period of death (one to be grateful for), you snap back to reality and life uncertainties. You then begin to wonder how blissful it would have been if the sleep could be eternal to escape all the dreadful obligations staring right back at you in the face.
Then I wonder, why don’t I just quit...life itself could really be hard sometimes leaving one assessing/doubting the reason for truly living. Life sometimes appears to be a timeline of catastrophic feeds of which social media appears to be an escape, but then things could still worsen when you look at the pictures of friends and contemporaries living the best of their lives for the gram even though it might be an ordinary facade.
I want to quit sometimes as it’s easier staying at home laying in bed all by yourself rather than having to rush off very early in the morning by 5 am to beat the hectic traffic only to meet an annoying boss whom you can't predict what he has up his sleeves for the day.
I want to quit my failed relationships and seclude myself from loving because of the fear of walking down that path again, one which might lead to another sour end. I think of quitting because of the lack of desire to sleep as a result of idea’s and visions that haven’t worked out because of low funds and drive to bring those dreams to reality.
I want to quit writing because creating contents could be hard sometimes, only to discover that no one actually reads your blog or even cares. This could leave one going to bed each night with thoughts of not wanting to deal anymore, only to wake up to a new morning with new hopes or to none at all.
This is why falling in love with yourself, your life, the people around and trying to understand life with the hope of actualizing a more favorable future at the long run is crucial. There is a thin line between succeeding and failing, the first half of the year has ended with everyone having different stories to tell. Regardless of what your story might be, let’s make the second half count.
