023: The World Keeps Spinning
The sun will rise tomorrow and each and every day after. The world keeps spinning no matter what. This perspective has especially been on my mind since I made a post about the up-and-down waves in everyday life (check it out). The idea that the world will keep turning no matter what happens in it is like a paradox. It has two sides to the same coin. It is both calming and nerve-wrecking. Every day starts anew. Either way this makes you feel, the fact is that it forces you to think about the impact and importance of what you do everyday.
This is a topic (one of many) I'm introducing that I still don't completely understand myself. Delving into this mindset and approach to life is complex. At one end it is completely defeating because you could do nothing and the world will keep turning. But at the same time it is pure motivation. It is where your inner motivation will ultimately come from. The drive! The willpower to create and impact and love and live and experience life to its fullest. It shows that life is completely in your hands, it is your choice to capitalize on the opportunity you have. You to make the decision to control your life.
"The world keeps spinning" presents a choice to anyone who understands it: Fall and succumb to the pressure it presents, or take the pressure as challenge and put yourself into the world. Engage with everything around you. The thing I am most afraid of in my life is letting it pass by. I want to be engaged and alive every day I wake up. I appreciate that each day I can watch the sun rise. I'm not entirely sure how to explain or understand this perspective just yet, but what I do know is that it is the key to life's must important choice. The choice to live or the choice to survive... More to come. Thanks for reading!
