Navigating Life's Storms: From 4000 Followers to Silence
Written on
Chapter 1: The Treadmill of Life
Ever had those moments when it feels impossible to catch your breath, and suddenly one day morphs into a week, which then turns into a month? It’s akin to being on an unending treadmill, isn’t it?
Currently, I find myself in that very situation. I’m running on this relentless treadmill, juggling various responsibilities—work, family, commitments, and countless others. Each of these tasks feels like a ticking bomb, demanding careful attention to prevent chaos.
It’s amusing how life can catch you off guard, right? One day, everything is smooth sailing, and the next, you’re entrenched in a storm, struggling against fierce winds and rough waters. Right now, that storm represents my life—filled with unexpected personal and professional hurdles that seem to have taken over.
Yet, amid this whirlwind, there’s one constant: you, my incredible community of over 4000 followers. Your support has been my anchor, a sanctuary. Each like, comment, and interaction serves as a reminder that I’m not facing this alone.
Recently, I've been swamped with personal and work-related issues that required my immediate focus, leaving little room for anything else. Sadly, writing, my cherished outlet, has taken a backseat, despite my longing to immerse myself in it.
Each day feels like a distinct narrative, with every moment representing a sentence or an idea. It’s challenging to articulate a story when you’re living it instead of recounting it. Nevertheless, as I navigate these turbulent waters, I eagerly anticipate the moment I can transform these experiences and lessons into words.
So please bear with me a little longer. I assure you, the words are on their way, and they will be worth the wait. Until then, I am grateful for your continued support and patience; it means more to me than words can express.
Chapter 2: The Chaos of Goals
Do you know that sensation when you set a goal that you’re convinced you can achieve, only to have life throw a wrench in your plans? That’s the reality I’ve been facing lately.
I had envisioned a grand scheme to write an article every single day. It sounded achievable, right? However, I drastically underestimated life’s unpredictability. It’s reminiscent of embarking on a serene voyage, only to be caught off guard by an unexpected wave that capsizes your vessel.
In the chaos of recent events, I’ve fallen short of my own expectations. I’ve allowed my plans to slip away, letting the boat drift aimlessly, and in doing so, I feel I’ve let you down as well. For that, I sincerely apologize.
I’ve always believed that the most profound insights often emerge during the most unusual moments. My mind is currently buzzing with thoughts I am eager to share with you. However, right now, those ideas are stuck in a mental traffic jam, caused by the relentless chaos of life.
Please bear with me, my friends. I am striving to find a way out of this predicament, and I hope that in the upcoming weeks, things will improve. As life unfolds and the storm calms, I look forward to returning to my usual pace, sharing my sometimes quirky, sometimes unconventional thoughts with you all.
Until then, I kindly request your understanding and patience. Life has been somewhat tyrannical of late, and I am not as present as I would wish. But I promise, this too shall pass. And when it does, we will once again explore the vast seas of thought and discussion together, just as we used to.
Your Michael…
