2020

-


We’re all suckers for watching movies with happy endings on rough nights to restore our faith in humanity and feel some good in the world, we want to let out built-up emotions into one outburst, we want to let go and let be without being judged, we want things to be a little bit easier on some days, and for some cosmic guidance to walk us through the nights without having to pay attention to the dark thoughts pushing their way through our minds.

This year has been an exception, this year has been anything but a cliché, this year has fallen nothing short on touching all of our lives deep in all corners, this year has made every quote relatable and has made a museum of memes that will last a lifetime that no other generation will relate to, remember 2020? 
People responsible for writing history books will fade into their own candle-light nights writing endless stories, and history teachers will probably curse the day they chose this job after today.

It has not been an easy year, it has punched us all in the heart and has suffocated us both physically and emotionally.

But it has taught us a lot, and those teachings we are facing; they’re the accelerated lessons we’ve been craving to face ourselves with for years but never really had the time or place to be cornered with or had the chance to tear down to every bit and piece. 

Whether you have learnt your boundaries this year, or built the resilience to carry on stronger, whether you have sat down and have listed your priorities in life and made clear life goals with set intentions, whether you have survived this year and have put a smile or two on others, it all counts and it all matters, and it’s all because you’ve been part of a global occasion united for the pure will to survive.

Carry on this will to help the world recover, and take it easy on yourself, we’re all lost and feeling indefinite; but life will carry on and so will you.

Pay it forward, and be the reason someone took a deep breath today and said “it was a good day despite it all.”

Do you think that it is considered plain stupidity? to pour yourself into the people you love? desperately wanting to be held and heard so that you don't become this overflowingly emotional individual who can burst at any sudden moment?  Is it stupid that you want to share your emotions for them to make some kind of sense when they are just too heavy to hold? But do you realise that it's the reason you've been hurt every single damn time, dropped down to tears on your knees, begging yourself to stop pouring and start filling.  Does it make any sense? to not share emotions and only share memories?.. Do you become less of a complete person if you share your feelings and they get filled in the wrong vase of a human? or is it actually brave to talk about hurt and love and lust and life until your smile cracks and your cheeks hurt?  At least maybe the feeling of sharing means caring and not so much as a future self-scaring of potentials and revenge and all the ugly in the world.

Old vs. New

How do you grieve your old selves? Do you create new ones that replace the old ones.. or do you paint over some scars and memories with fresh paint; hiding all that is underneath like a renewed building that has survived a fire?  Or do you just toss these memories in a box and keep them in a faraway corner that gets dustier with time until it’s too unhygienic to reach or unravel?  What happens to memories, pain, laughter, and life incidents?  And who gets to choose their destiny?  And why are the memories that scarred your heart easier to reach than any other happy ones in the side-corners of your brain?  Does pain come in brighter colours than laughter?  Who answers these questions?  And who will help you in burning these boxes to ashes to get the courage to paint all over them again?

Mind your own damn fruits.

I was never the kind of person who paid real attention to the actions of others, or lack of actions per se. I would go through the days with the effortless pace of a tree that is trying to find its path through the soils, hyped up and all excited to go! You come to realize with time, that this growing tree will face many other roots in its way down-under, ones that flow with it perfectly, others that cut it off but with no real intention for harm, and some others, oh well.. you know. This tree grew to better understand boundaries and positions of power - as sad as that sounds, the idea that even if your next-door chillest tree in town wants to cut cross your way, you simply can’t and won’t let it, just because it is your personal space and that is enough reason. You start noticing the toxicity of intentional acts, and what effort truly means, what genuine behaviors are, and the energy levels that you have reserved in you the minute you meet and the second you leave, the ease you feel w
