There isn’t a lot of time to waste time
Are you taking a moment to experience it, or are you constantly looking out the window, hoping for better days? This is it, this is what you have now, are you really going to let it slip.
At this point you can realize that i write based on phases i experience, and i try to bring it all into thoughts and share.
This year has been an experience, from having doubts and feeling uncertainty to watching a man die, feeling like I’m doing too much to overthinking to observing and now this.
People make us feel like we have a lot of time but we really don’t, I’m supposed to be reading for my exams but here i am—penning away, because i feel— i know that if i don’t write this I’m going to let it go and go back to doing what everyone is doing… living like they have a lot of time.
Recently I’ve been disconnected from social media a bit, i guess the fast paced information and catching up on people’s life is not really my forte, and I’ve been embracing on my creations. Now i approach things with more urgency.
Keeping in mind that my time is limited and there is, in fact, a lot of work to be done.
Google photos shared a reminder of a picture i took 4 years ago.
Took it on a friend of mine’s phone, he’s here no more.
I have taken this energy into myself, focusing purely on my creations and my work.
No room for anything else, because in reality, nothing else matters.
Not who is winning the rap beef or what people are posting or doing. You have to believe in yourself because no one would root for you like you.
You must embrace whatever you would love to do with your life, and do it with enthusiasm and love.
What i have observed is that, that’s all there is.
Just memories of the process and the failures, the times where you risked it all and thought you wouldn’t make it. Here we are.
I always think back to a younger me, when I started thinking about the important stuff, when i started my podcast, when i started writing.
Who would’ve thought we would make it this far?
Don’t give up on what you hold dear to you, because that’s all there is.
When you see the pattern you realize, there isn’t much in this life, than experiences and memories.
That’s all you get.
That’s all you carry around and that’s all that defines you. How you can shape people’s experiences and memories by just being yourself and putting out your thoughts. I might be writing this now, 20 people might read this, but you never know how far it goes, 10 years, probably when i’m dead.
But it doesn’t matter, because this is where i stood and where i staked my claim.
This is where i took all the experiences and memories the universe has given me and shared it back. That’s as far as i can go, it is up to you to take this as face value and see what’s at stake.
As for me, I’ll keep on the good work, so you can too.
Life is truly—brief.
