Just Another Sunday

In my case I started writing this short article. I haven’t written anything for a while now. So I thought, why not start writing again. I did have that coffee kick start this morning, twice. Anyway, writing is a hobby I enjoy very much doing. However, as most people will recognize, due to the circumstances you don’t always get the opportunity to do things you really like to do.

Everybody has issues in life. These could be for instance certain expectations, career choice versus rat race, or just barely surviving due to financial misfortune. One might wonder, do we take enough time to sometimes take a break and really think about stuff, our current situation. And when we start thinking about it, are we content with our current situation, or would we like to change it. And if so, which means do we have to alter the situation so that we are able to do the things we really like to do, once in a while.

Or is reality just like a treadmill you’ll never be able to leave once you hop on it? Meaning, just start running towards the same direction, it’s fixed for life and there’s no way out. Kind of a thinker don’t you think?

In my opinion, there is no fixed reality. I do take a break once in a while to think things over. It enables me to take charge of my situation and take measures if necessary to alter it. Therefore, I’m taking the opportunity to do some writing again this Sunday morning.

So go out there if you’re not happy with your current situation. And if you are, well, then enjoy your Sunday.

For me, it was great writing something down on paper, just a few thoughts. Maybe I should do this more often again. But for now, I’ve still got tons of stuff to do this day. Have a great Sunday!
