The path to contentment and joy is not to dwell on how things ought to be, but to embrace life as it is. Not to say that I settle and resign to the less than ideal circumstances, but that I remain peaceful even as I struggle and question and search. Reconciling turmoil with serenity is an art and a disposition - developed in solitude and authenticity.

On Facing Fears
Just because it's scary doesn't mean you shouldn't do it.
On the contrary, that is precisely why you should do it.

Facebook Asked Me What Was On My Mind And This Is What I Said
Connection. The beautiful mystery of two seemingly remote paths crossing at some point around the bend and converging as if it were one path all along.
Life. How precious and precarious. How we sometimes fret and fuss over the most trivial things and forget that in the Greater Scheme of Things, the trivial things don't matter.
Beauty. How it is pursued and purchased. How it is perceived by the beholder. That the physical kind can be fleeting. That Audrey Hepburn knew exactly what was beautiful and became it.
Work. How it is a burden or a blessing depending on how you frame it. How it can be enabling not just financially but also cognitively and socially. That what matters is not what you do for a living but how you do it. That being a corporate minion is not bad or shameful -but being minion-minded is.
Love. How it comes in many forms. That it is a decision, not a feeling. That love thrives where there is truth and freedom.

Life and Waiting
1. I've come to know that most of Life, is waiting. And most of the time, whatever I'm waiting for, comes sooner or later.
2. Sometimes I get the feeling that this isn't it, that out there, my real Life is waiting.
