Sticks and stones

We reminisce about old times, when things were how they were at that time, or at least the way we remembered it. Be it happy times or sad times. Unsuspecting stray words that come from the mouths of others simply sets your brain rolling back in time, dishing everything you put in the past back into the present. Simply flooding your mind with the past.

Hit some stones and rocks along the way. Thats when you plan a detour. Go elsewhere, do something else. All those questions come into mind. Quit, make that necessary change and never look back. Saying is easy, the execution is a bit elusive.

"When your whole life goes up in smoke, its time for a promotion".
Choosing love over career, or career over love. At least if that makes you happy, you should go for it. Both are equally important, but sometimes we're not the lucky few who get to keep both.

It's more than just knowing what you're doing at work. It's about knowing and understanding what you're doing matters more thn just blindly doing whatever you should be doing. It's frustrating at times when you dont have enough access to the necessary information, which is closely guarded by people who made themselves important by having total control over it. Of course, if you were them, you'd do the same thing to maintain your value.

Try something new. Go on a totally different route. Explore new opportunities. Evaluate options. Find the courage. Take that risk.

The pursuit has begun.
