Addy

Those years ago, I lived on pure faith. I gave everything away and chose to run with the wind. At times I had nothing tying me to society - no phone, ID, car, or money. I went against everything I ever thought I knew. I went against society’s standards entirely just to see what might happen. I wanted to know the ins and outs of this world and see what was really possible.

Eventually, I took a turn. I decided I’d work, save, buy a car, pay bills, etc. because somewhere along the way I had begun to believe I didn’t deserve anything that brought me more joy or pleasure. So I re-integrated and re-built myself, driven by my desire to help future generations.

Integrating back into society comes with some of the mindset traps - Running at a carrot on a stick is not going to get anyone anywhere.
So I’ve had to learn to slow down.
And somehow, it’s only sped things up.

Don’t let life pass you by while you are fixated on what comes next.
