I Want To Write My Random Thoughts And Feelings

We've all got our own unique scars, wounds, and marks - both physical and not.

Ultimately, I've learned that you can only control yourself, and you can only save yourself.

I believe the main goal in this rotten, yet uniquely fascinating thing that is life, is to master yourself.

You - in the present moment - are the foundation for your life. From there, everything else flows.

It's hard. Damned hard... Yet no effort or pain is in vain if you learn from it and evolve.

So much THIS. It's the only way to forge our path(s) towards contenment. I even posted a poem on this subject last week. Great advice. Hope you're well. Been a long time since I last saw you around.😊

@MoonlightLullaby Hey, thank you for your comment!

I have been going through a lot of personal and spiritual growth lately, but it has also come with unexpected immense pain.

I am hurting, but also coping better than I have in the past.

Sometimes anxious, sometimes sad.

I'm learning to meditate more and seek the advantage in scary situations.

@MoonlightLullaby I mostly come here when something is up. LOL.

You can tell when I am doing better. Because it means I'm probably not on here.

All the best to you!

@GeistInTheMachine Thanks.

All you mentioned is to be expected, in my experience. Growth isn't easy nor pretty. Not to mention any day can bring about bad feelings/emotions. As long as they're getting better/easier and you feel vs fearing them; that's what's important.

@MoonlightLullaby All I know is that my old self would be absolutely catatonic with grief right now. So...progress. lol .
