The complexity of life

I was reminded of the feeling I had when I wrote a blog years ago, and even though I know no one is reading it, I still get the same excitement from being able to read it over and over again and be reminded of the things I did and didn't do. Almost a decade has passed since I last wrote about my thoughts. Being an adult has kept me busy with work, school, relationships, family, and everything else that counts to being a human. In fact, I eventually reached a point where I had to deal with my mental health because I was burnt out.

It's my dream job, yet I was overwhelmed! I genuinely enjoyed embracing the things that I had once lost. Although the road was initially difficult, persistence and hard work eventually paid off. I never imagined how I got to the point where I didn't think I could achieve it. God always works in ways beyond human understanding.

The feeling overwhelms me as I write this, remembering how I used to balance blogging with my work and studies. Despite my busy schedule, I started and kept up a blog site for years. I spent several restless nights putting down on writing every thought that crossed my mind. But after those years, reality set in, bringing with it the harsh realities and unavoidable truths of life. With the growth of the internet and technology, the blogging and vlogging environments have changed, and now everyone is vlogging and creating their material for profit.

I'm enjoying writing right now. Apart from being an introvert, I want to stay because it's peaceful and simple. The world is complex enough as it is; let's not make it any more so with our own complicated lives. I want to savor the peace of mind I already have, which is already a luxury, given the prevalence of social media in today's world.
