Choices

Those fleeting moments when I manage to do the right thing are incredibly rewarding. Most of them seem to rely on "intuition." I use that term because it's somewhat easy to understand, although it may not fully capture its essence.

When I'm not fully present in the moment, these moments elude me. They tend to occur during those "sleepy moments" that also influence a variety of other situations, including those involving making good choices.

"Do the right thing" 

Seemingly so simple yet often turns into a complex and confusing thought...

Perhaps it's an issue of the mind.

Maybe I don't need to overthink it.

But then again, not thinking enough often leads me to places I'd rather not be.

I know what I should do: invest in activities that contribute to my personal growth and avoid those that hinder it. I have even listed numerous examples of both, allowing me to "lighten up" when necessary.

Yet, I still find myself confused between duty and pleasure.

And before I know it, I've become lost once again.

And for the same reasons as before!

It's a cycle...

I've made a decision to start over, again. This means prioritizing what I must do and avoiding what would be better to let go of. 

*deep breath*

I hope I can surround myself with people, places, and ideas that strengthen the path I have chosen.
