To new beginnings...
With the current state of the world right now, most people would lose the sight of their goal and forget their motivations to move forward. They linger in their own sadness, regrets, and mistakes, afraid to make any changes to their routines, and scared to break the chains that binds them to their own self-pity and self-preservation.
But isn't this the best time to cut ties with your former self that kept you from getting what you truly want... Happiness. Above all else, this is the best time to break free and enjoy what else the world has to offer. Break the chains of regrets, fear, and loneliness in order to finally touch the dream that's seemed so far high and out of our reach.
It's in this moment that we can achieve tranquility, but at the same time, rock the world with what we have to offer. Sulking isn't a bad thing, but it's staying there with your knees bent on the ground that makes it worse. They say that if you fall down, you had to get up. Otherwise, you'll get stuck with your sorry self mopping the mess of your mistakes.
Instead of worrying of what may come about, you should be living the moment with the challenge of facing the unknown. See things, hear things, taste the true nature of life. And most importantly... Feel! Understand what makes you tick - know what you hate and dislike. Get mad! Get angry! Bring it all out, and don't let a single thing block your emotions, because once you leave an ounce of unsaid and unexpressed feelings, there will come the time that you won't be able to release them anymore.
Pick a hobby. Heck, pick tons of them, but don't leave them hanging and make sure to finish what you started. Yes, you may have had loose ends before, but this will be the perfect time to tie them back up, or cut'em loose once and for all.
Forget and don't forget. Leave the things that you don't benefit from, it's the survival of the fittest out there. It's disappointing, but it's true. Use and get used, as long as you have control. It may sound antagonistic, but take note that not everyone gets to win in life. Don't get left out!
Breathe in. Think less. Do more. And make your decisions now. You can only have so much time to make your choices. You don't have enough time to get distracted. Actually, get distracted! You can't be serious at all times, but learn to pick when and where.
Ditch everyone who don't give a shit about you. You don't need them, and neither they you. You've met, you've talked, maybe enjoyed some time together, but that's it. Leave it be. Time's gone, and time's passed. Talk to another, and find the people who can't live without you. Those people are important. They will give what you need, and help you get what you want because they wouldn't want to lose you. And you also won't be able to survive without them - it's called co-dependence.
Now, when this has all synced in, read it again. You might've missed something. Then, pick yourself up, and start organizing your priorities and do them. This is your chance to get your life back. This is your chance to stand and fight back. You still have a long way, so start moving. Doesn't have to be straight-forward. There will always be sidetracks, ups and downs. Just don't go back, not until you've reached the finish line.
