Well, well, well.
One moment I'm dwelling about why social media has played such a central role in our lives, and the next thing I know, is that I blinked, and we're in May! May of 2026!
We're just about a month short from the middle of the "New Year", and yet everything that happened in January now feels like a distant past.
I had put in place some aims for the first quarter of this year, achieved most of them, and now that we're entering, wait scratch that, now that we're nearing the end of the second quarter, I'm only <---this---> close to carrying out some of the other plans on my plate. Seems like the only thing I need more of is patience. And faith. Lots of faith that all of this will pan out exactly as it was meant to.
If anything, I would say that this year has been... paradoxical. It has pushed me to such great heights -- some distances I never knew I would ever reach, and ironically those heights have given me an insight about "what could also be mine" if only I took just one more step.
I'm left wondering whether I am, in some ways shortchanging myself, or whether deep down I'm feeding a certain greed that shouldn't be entertained. On the one hand I know that I've come to a certain juncture in life, where not many have reached, yet something in me makes me feel like there's a higher mountain I can scale. I don't want to fix something that's clearly not broken, yet the non-action on some days makes me unhappy.
So, yeah. In a nutshell, paradoxical is the word.
And on random note, I'll just write the words from a random song that's in my head right now--
"can you take me higher, to a place where blind men see?"
Pretty much sums up everything I've been thinking, don't you think?
