Part 2: Ditch The Drama, Trust Me!
Continuing.
I feel maybe we are not supposed to take life so seriously, no?
I think maybe we were put on this planet to enjoy the beautiful scenery around us, to breathe in the fresh air, to feel the wind and the breeze playing with our hair while we sit in the car with the windows down. Maybe life is just about being so happy in the present moment.
And I feel we have started taking life way too seriously. We've made it so complex because of our thoughts- the constant overanalysing, the way we take things personally, the weight we give to people's words or how they treat us. We measure our worth by our failures and successes, the grades we get in college, the friends we make, and sometimes we try to escape life through temporary distractions that are actually injurious to our health, it is funny. We let happiness slip through our fingers again and again, and instead of holding on to joy, we worry and we..escape.
I've seen people worry about the smallest things, getting caught up in endless loops of stress, so disconnected from the present moment. But at the same time, I've also seen people handle stress so beautifully. They are just happy souls. And no matter what life throws at them, no matter how chaotic things get, they remain at peace- my favourite kind of people! <3
And I feel that's not at all something dumb or naive. In fact, I feel extremely intelligent people have this rare ability to be happy- to choose optimism, to radiate positivity. And I wouldn't even call it optimism, I'd call it realism. Because when we talk about being realistic, isn't it about accepting life as it is? The people who stay joyful know that this present moment is all they truly have. And they know that frowning, overthinking, or clinging to sadness won't fix anything.
I feel the most intelligent people aren't the ones who make easy situations complex. They're the ones who make complex situations easy. They break life down into steps, into manageable pieces, and they move through each phase with calmness and patience. Because deep down, they understand- they know- that life is going to work out for them.
The universe is aligning every particle, every event, every connection in their favor. And they only need to do one thing: align their energy with the universe's plan. Align their energy to be so, so pure, so present, so full of life, that the universe looks at them and says, Yes, this soul is ready for the path I've carved for them.
That person isn't drowning in worries. They're not overthinking every step. And let me tell you- life has a bunch full of worries for everyone. No one is exempt. We cannot compare worries. We cannot compare fears. We cannot compare the difficulties of life. All we can do is observe how different people respond to them. And I feel the happiest souls are the ones who choose to enjoy life, regardless of the difficulties.
Because it's all a phase. The happy moments are a phase. The difficult moments are a phase. Nothing stays. Nothing lingers forever. So maybe the only true constant is the reality we choose to live with. And I feel that reality should be breathtakingly beautiful.
It starts with your thoughts. It starts with your responsibility to create a beautiful day for yourself, every single day. It starts with being grateful to God for everything He has gifted you- not just life, but the miracle of nature, the rhythm of your breath, the body that carries you, the soul that is you.
Emphasising on the last lines from my first peice of this series -- Maybe we were never meant to figure everything out. :))
