There comes a time in our
life, when we will start to lose track of everything. Everyday activities now
become unnecessary burden and your passion starts to feel like the voluntary
chores. Attention span is shortened to the extent that it alarms you. The mind would
start to zone-out beyond the definition of normal.
The people you go to discuss
this problem might me more lost than you are. Which is a good thing for you are
not alone, and you have someone who understands. You are not the only one with distrust,
stabs in the back, sorrows, guilt, and GOD knows what behind those walls. Now
the reason behind panic is not how to get out of here, it is what is wrong? Sometimes we know the solution
but problem is too vague that it makes you doubt every move.
It is not depression. It
is exhaustion, we try, we fail, and we get up and move on. As this cycle
repeats we start to believe we are getting stronger. It won’t always work that
way, people don’t function in the same way always. And that’s the beauty of it.
One day you would just want this same old routine to stop but you can’t. This
would add to the frustration and make you drag yourself to the daily
activities. Wake up, make breakfast, and go to work, realizing the vicious
cycle has no escape. Now since subconsciously a part of you do not want to do
it, hence you would start to lose track of everything. However you might not see through it. See we
just identified the problem which is a huge success so a high five to that!
Solutions:
First things first, start
with taking a break to reflect. If you identify what you are missing, go
get it! Sometimes what we are actually missing could be a spiritual
push to get us back on track. The point is to understand what massive problems
the best of human kind “The Prophets” went through and still
never gave up. It really helps you perceive how small your problems are and why
to not give up hope. You know what a Believer can do best? Believe!
Secondly sometimes you
know what you are missing. You are praying, hoping, helping people and doing
good things a believer must do. And you are still missing it. Now don’t jump to
the conclusions like how you might have gone astray or are being punished. It’s OK to get tired. Only it does NOT mean you are losing hope. Doubts, second
thoughts, fears, exhaustion they are all the characteristics of being a human. Start
taking heavy dose of everything that is positive around you. Even if it means
to hang-out with a 5 years old neighbor. By the way kids are the best company
you can get at times like these. They keep your mind of unnecessary worries,
for they ALWAYS want your complete attention! Forget meditation to improve
concentration, spend some time with kids.
Pretending makes it only
worse, admit and accept things just as they are. We will work on the “GET UP
and dust off the dirt” later. For now let’s just celebrate being excessively sick
and tired souls taking a break.
