Late Night Epiphanies Stirring

Always we want to get to the end result. It’s like, we know we’re going through a period of growth, but we don’t want to actually go through the period of growth. We want to just know what we were supposed to learn and move on, new and improved. But, it’s basically impossible to jump ahead to the end because that totally defeats the purpose of growing from going through the experience. So, I can’t tell you how that interview will turn out. Or, how things will eventually work out with that guy. All I can do is say you might as well enjoy the growth period!

Since you can’t fast forward or rewind. Play. Which translates to enjoy. Enjoy the beautiful experience and all of its ambiguity.

This is especially true for budding relationships that might fizzle and fade or blossom. You really can’t operate on either prediction. You must, above all else, at all costs, operate purely on the present. It’s the only way to get the truth. The unadulterated truth on how you’re feeling. When you aren’t trying to frame your words in order to guarantee a certain outcome. Just be. Exist. These are concepts somewhat foreign to planners and organized individuals.

It’s a simple test of faith, perseverance, spontaneity and all those marvelously tricky virtues of life. Live for the little moments. This too shall pass, and then something else will come along, and you’ll do it all over again. So, just keep on living for those little moments. They add up to a beautiful life.
