What lies beyond?
Mostly unknown as far as I know because honestly I have no idea what’s out there. I can only spot as far as my vision allows me to but I certainly can’t spot the other side of the world from where I’m currently standing.
So, it is wise to focus on what I can see and use it up to live my life. I may not see all of it but what I can see is enough for me to survive in this world.
And honestly, this makes me much more peaceful because I don’t need to see everything. I just need to see what is good for me.
Similarly, I don’t like chasing the luxuries of life or compare myself with those who can see and do better than me. I know my capabilities and they know theirs.
Let them be what they want to be and let me be what I want to be. What I really need is peace of mind and soul, which is only achievable through relying upon what I possess.
I can lift a certain weight on my back, not the whole world!

Such a serene attitude. Indeed, it can be exhausting to have a curious mind that wants to get all the answers. And what a relief when at times this all disappears and makes room for just being.

I admit that questions pop every now and then in my mind but seeking answers for all isn’t possible for me.
I stay as lightweight and calm as I can be, which is certainly a bliss.
Thank you very much for sharing your take, Erika 🙂

Actually, we don’t need to understand everything. That which we should we will because that happens naturally anyway. A lot of stress potential we can eliminated.
My pleasure, Hammad, take care 😊
