Note to remind myself

See what it feels like to fully commit yourself to your choices
on all types of days and nights
Sometimes, it will mean exerting some self-control
leaving opportunities untouched, words unspoken
Sometimes it will mean being uncomfortable for a while
Better to face a problem and solve it
rather than turning towards distraction instead
Pay attention to what your choices have really created!
Do you like where you are?
Do you like this situation?
Do you like these people you’re with?
Can you be honest with yourself and face the things you don’t like
even while you enjoy the things you do like?
Being present is part of being brave
Being brave can mean facing one’s whole situation
it can mean finding the energy to see it and lift it up
Can you wrap your whole being around your real life?
Can you find joy where you are?!

    I was just browsing, minding my own when I noticed your note. I can't help but think on things. I have to consider for a while......
    That's a whole lot of good questions. I like most of my answers.
    Nothing is perfect and compromise has its place. I just hope to have them like me as much as I like them.
    Thanks for the reminder

    I remember when, yeah. I swore I knew everything, oh yeah.

    It's not really about compromise, it's about acceptance and wholeness. Maturity, courage and honesty too. :)
