Time Marches On,.......

Social Media has a way of helping us see what held our interest years ago, decades sometimes. Some of it can be painful, some joyful. Some things about past chapters are better to stay dormant. Journaling helps us to remember as well, but there's something about social media images that stick. There Is Only this One Life,.......and as Past Chapters Close, there is typically No Going Back.

Our Attempt to Eradicate Feelings

-) pleasure and pain

-) loss and gain

-) praise and blame

-) fame and disgrace.

A more practical approach would be to get to know them, see how they hook us, see how they color our perception of reality, see how they aren’t all that solid.

We Do Anything To not Feel Pain

Including causing pain and abusing power, There are very few people who could handle being held accountable for causing hurt without rationalizing, blaming, or shutting down.

People are desperate to feel more connected to their own lives and to one another,

- Is anyone looking in the right places?

- Is anyone thinking about how it all works together?

- Is everyone disembodied from their own inner world and disconnected from other people?

Many Lonely & Secret Lives

The same substances that take the edge off anxiety and pain also dull our sense of observation. We see the pain caused by the misuse of power, so we numb our pain and lose track of our own power. We become terrified of feeling pain, so we engage in behaviors that become a magnet for more pain. We run from anger and grief straight into the arms of fear, perfectionism, and the desperate need for control.

When we stop numbing and start feeling and learning again, we have to reevaluate everything, especially how to choose loving ourselves over making other people comfortable. It was the hardest work I’ve ever done and continue to do.

Time Marches On,.............

"Barely the day started and

it's already six in the evening.

Barely arrived on Monday

and it's already Friday.

.. and the month is already over.

.. and the year is almost over.

.. and already 40, 50 or 60 years

of our lives have passed.

.. and we realize that we lost

our parents, friends.

.. and we realize it's too late

to go back.

So.. Let's try, despite

everything, to enjoy

the remaining time.

Let's keep looking for

activities that we like.

Let's put some color in

our grey.

Let's smile at the little

things in life that put

balm in our hearts.

And despite everything,

we must continue to enjoy

with serenity this time we

have left.

Let's try to eliminate the

afters..

I'm doing it after.

I'll say after.

I'll think about it after.

We leave everything for

later like ′′ after ′′ is ours.

Because what we don't

understand is that:

Afterwards, the coffee

gets cold.

afterwards, priorities change.

Afterwards, the charm is

broken.

Afterwards, health passes.

Afterwards, the kids grow up.

Afterwards parents get old.

Afterwards, promises are

forgotten.

Afterwards, the day becomes

the night.

Afterwards, life ends.

And then it's often too late.

So.. Let's leave nothing for

later.

Because still waiting to see

later, we can lose the

best moments, the best

experiences, best friends,

the best family.

The day is today. The

moment is now.

We are no longer at the

age where we can afford

to postpone what needs

to be done right away."

It Looks Like An Eternity,

But It's A Short Trip,

Enjoy Life And Always

Be Kind."

We are living in a time when everyone is constantly reassessing what is next for them. In the mid-career group, people who have spent years working are now seeing their industry dramatically evolve and are facing the question: “What does that mean for me in the next twenty years?”

The post-career population is going through massive change that many of them are not prepared financially, logistically, or emotionally for the next phase of their lives.
