Journey of Curiosity
In the solitude of a dark street, loneliness teaches you to confront your fears and fight through the darkness. It’s in these moments, holding a small candle, that you find your inner strength and clarity.
In my journey with neurodivergence, I’ve found solace in the intricate details others often overlook. Despite the challenges, my ‘different’ brain has gifted me with a profound ability to see beyond the surface, finding beauty in the unexpected and joy in the everyday moments that light up my unique perspective on life.
As someone who’s wrestled with the pain and monotony of exercise, I’ve discovered a deeper rhythm beneath the surface. It’s not just about building muscle or looking good—it’s about tuning your mind and body like a jazz ensemble. This journey isn’t easy, but in those moments when pain gives way to peace, you realize it’s worth every drop of sweat.
Ever feel like time speeds up as you age? Watching kids grow and experiencing fewer personal changes can lead to a quarter-life or midlife crisis. I’ve found that recognising we only have one life shifts our perspective. Embracing time as our ally and focusing on internal fulfilment rather than external achievements can transform our experience and fill the void left by life’s rush.
Most of my waking time, I’m buried in work, stuck in transactional relationships. Weekends are for hobbies, exploration, relationships, or just catching up on sleep. But there’s a quieter, slower side of life we often miss. It’s about embracing silence and simplicity, finding warmth in solitude, and just breathing without the weight of the world. We need to shut down our senses and simply live, even if just for a moment.
So, why are you hoping? Why are you dreaming? Why are you living?
