When I am bored

 


When I am bored

and my motivation is at its lowest

the persuasive thoughts consume me;

that is when I need to pay attention 

to my senses

get out of my head

and go for a walk.

When my actions are rote






Those times when my actions are rote
completed without thought,
without accessing any of my senses,
when my mind is numb
left alone in repetition,
his persuasive thoughts consume me.
his perspective is the only one I have.
I am ready to act,
ready to end.

Learn from your depression





Learn from your depression

What painful scar is it highlighting?

Write it down.

It is a fundamental mind shift.


We are told that depression is bad

and we must fight it

when in and of itself

it is not.


Just as pain tells you

your body is injured

so depression tells you

your mind is hemorrhaging.

Give up on your dream






Give up on your dream.

Your life will be so much easier

just filling in time and waiting.


Does purpose

or meaning

or life 

really matter?


It does.


Just because it's hard

doesn't mean it's hopeless

Trying isn't fruitless

Living is not a waste of time.


Mourn for today

and then tomorrow

start again.

Why do you hesitate?



Why do you hesitate?

 

It is better to fail

because I didn't try

than it is to find out

I'm simply not good enough.


If only

instead of no.

I will never be an author

I don't read enough.
