Life.
It may not be fair, but it is just.
And like the tortoise and the hare, it is never about how fast you run, but rather, how you run the race.
Life …
It isn’t meant to be fair. For fair is: equal. But no one human is equal to another. So fairness cannot exist in a space that holds many variables.
Everything has a price. Choice has a price. Even the path of least resistance has named its price. It’s called regret.
That’s what they don’t tell you.
And just because some of us arrive a little later to our destination, it does not mean we have missed the train. You see …
That delay, there is a lesson to be learnt. And the sooner we learn, the faster we can move forward.
There are no same paths.
So when we want to compare our success and our destination arrival, maybe we should see it more as a journey.
Nestled amongst the mundane is beauty. But when we go too fast and in haste, we miss the beauty life wants to reveal to our soul.
Take it slow.
If something is meant for you, it will always wait for your arrival.
Take care of today … Tomorrow has its own set of problems. And if you carry over today’s worry into tomorrow, it will just burden the load.
Make it easy for yourself … make today count and make tomorrow’s load a lot lighter.
Life is not a competition.
We have to take it slow to understand the journey, then process … will feel less cumbersome.
Sometimes, we have to be last, in order to be first.
Life is a little bit mysterious in that way. And maybe it’s a good thing! That means, there is something new to discover about our personal journey and why things had to happen the way it did.
And just because someone got there early, can also mean that, the lessons you learnt earlier, they will have to learn later.
So you see …
Everything pans out in the end.
So if you’re reading this and you feel as though you have fallen behind. Just remember … the devil is in the detail and not everything is visible to the naked eye.
