As I reflect on my progress this morning toward some of my goals or just on the steps I want to take to try and improve things in my life, I find that momentum is not a perfectly flowing thing. There are days that are perfect - days that allow me to complete multiple tasks…
Life
Painting pictures is hard.
Today has been a struggle. The past month of my life has been an emotional rollercoaster and I felt like today would be a day that would be good to reflect on my blog. When I write a blog post, I am trying to put my recent thoughts and feelings on the page in an…
Up and down.
The reality of going through change is that there will be ups and downs. Emotions can rollercoaster, the mind can wander. When you are keeping busy, it seems easy to put the heavy stuff on the back burner. But, we eventually have to face those pieces of change head-on when it all slows down. We…
TRYING.
Today's thoughts are short and sweet for me. I still wanted to share them, though. During a time of change, uncertainty, and soul-searching, we aren't always 100% in it. Focus can waver, emotions come and go, and just a lot going on. All I feel I can do is think, feel, and reflect on what…
What can I do today?
I had a bit of a "revelation reflection" a few days ago. As mentioned in my last post, I have been struggling with understanding where I am now and how it relates to my future. I kept finding myself stuck when I try to look at where I should be and not where I am…
IDK.
I want to write about my confusion. It seems to be the root of my experiences lately. I am trying to understand my thoughts and feelings. I don't know. I do things and feel things and it seems straightforward, but I dive beneath the surface and it is all murky. Why am I feeling insecure?…
Wants and Needs.
I know my twenties are really my time to go and get it. My brain is fully developing, I'm still young with energy, and I feel like I have time to do so many things. In the midst of that, I am working on balancing my wants and needs. I should know those things... But…
The Woods.
As a heavy thinker and a constant processor of information in life, I feel like I'm constantly in a maze trying to make my way through. Searching for an understanding of feelings, choices, values. It all feels like this grand puzzle... And I never seem to be out of the woods. The woods continue to…
Response.
"I'm trying to think of the right thing to say..." Those lyrics, from the song "Passionfruit" by Drake, played in my ears as I had the idea to talk about the importance of response. Pretty fitting! I have spoken a lot about the value I place on words. With that, much of that value is…
The Opportunity to Make an Impact.
As I maneuvered through my day a few days ago, my phone buzzed in my pocket. I gazed at my phone with a soft smile and a warmed heart - I was notified by WordPress that I have reached over 10,000 views of my blog here (in over 60 countries), "Nelson Searcy's Thought Sharing". When…
