"It’s alright to stop.. There’s no need to run without even knowing the reason.. It’s alright to not have a dream.. If you have moments where you feel happiness for a while.. It’s alright to stop."
- Paradise, BTS
While I'm definitely not advocating leading an aimless life, I do support taking a breather every now and then. Just halting for a minute and looking around.
Yes, I agree that there's never going to be another 'You' in this world so you want to do everything in your might to reach your goals, reach the moon, reach the stars, just, reach wherever you want to be. However, all I want to say is, let's try not to give the world so much of you that there isn't any bit left for yourself.
So, let's go, take a walk to that nearby lake, maybe go for a hike or even that new cat cafe in town. You want to stay indoors? Okay, let's get some reading done, anything from Murakami to Disney, or maybe watch Netflix or play games and have that waffles you've stacked away because of your new diet plan.
Let's just, breathe, yeah?
I'm Alex. I'm that one friend of yours who's always been too busy to hang out but secretly, hopelessly, wants to take a break to talk to you. So, join me in my banter and read my letters that I write to you, from my day to day experiences. Want to talk about something? Write to me, and you'll always get a response, even on the busiest of days.
In this busy world, let's cheer up each other and try to love ourselves a little more, yeah? :)
