My blog is a window into my mind. When I ponder over each new topic; when I contemplate over word usage and sentence formation; and when I read them with nostalgic enjoyment. If I were to send out any kind of energy to the cyberspace, I wanted it to be cheeky and cheery, and I carefully made it the purpose of this blog for over 10 years.
However, the last post about Disney was downright negative. After I wrote that post, my mood was dark for a week as my mind was reliving the unhappy events from two months ago. I was vindictive and could not let go. It was like I purposely smeared my mind with dirt a second time, and let the incidents ruined my mood all over again.
Life is messy and the world is chaotic. There are many external things that are out of our control yet downright hurtful, and we are tough on ourselves a lot. We need to protect our own well-being. Find out things that disturb us, and learn to stay away from those. At the same time, find those things that make us happy and stick with them. Learn to heal from physical pain and let go of emotional sufferings, and keep our friends and love ones close. Be kind to ourselves and others, not only for Karma, but also because it will help keep our own peace of mind.
