/The Unseen Progress/
The progress we human beings make at micro level is never really documented. We don't really sit with each other to reflect on how our messy lives have become a little less chaotic over the course of a year. Not in literal sense but in a way, we deal with life, in a more composed way than before.
Progress will mean something different to you at every stage of your life. Sometimes, progress is about regaining a lost sense of self after years of being consumed by one aspect of your life whether it is earning a degree, securing a high-paying job, marrying the right person, having children and the list goes on. But in the midst of all this chaos, where are YOU?
Where is your well-being-your physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual well-being. Have you documented any progress you made in your well-being in the past year?
Did you notice how you finally finished that book you'd been dragging along for months because you are now able to focus better than before?
Did you notice how self-sufficient you feel in your own company lately?
Did you also notice your back has started hurting as you enter your late 20s with wrong posture and no regular exercise?
Did you notice a change in your relationship with your Creator?
Did you notice that change is the only constant process in your life and no feeling is eternal?
Have you given yourself the credit you deseve for making it this far without giving up?
Or like many of us, have you been measuring your worth solely by societal benchmarks-overlooking the quiet, yet profound, progress you have or have not made in nurturing your inner self?
