Relate, Reflect and Ruminate: Dark Places

Because sometimes, emotions don’t fit into bullet points and I have a flare for the dramatic.

For those standing in stillness, wondering why the noise inside won’t quiet.

Platitudes aplenty

Intentions under the wings

Pushing with force to leave the ground

But the motors beneath not in life

Do you make the wind feel bad?

Do you disappoint by explaining reality?

Sounds made in service of its ego

Pretending ground has been made

The looker deceived by the truth

Cold engines like the heart

Unseen and unrequited

Alone, yearning for momentum

Trust in yourself, a quagmire

The ambience shouting failures unrelenting

Through saccharine words without depth

Understanding not found from the overwhelm

Left in coldness

Staunched in fear

Confused in loneliness

Riddles appear

πŸ—οΈ Three Paths to Make This Yours - Unlock Your Understanding:

How do I approach the moments when I feel stalled in my own life?

  • 🧠 The Thinker’s Path: I would dissect the emotional mechanics beneath my inertia and seek meaning in the breakdown.

    • 🧠 Journal the exact emotional language of your 'stuck' momentsβ€”define, don’t dismiss.

  • 🌿 The Wanderer’s Path: I would let myself drift through the stillness, trusting that clarity comes in its own time.

    • 🌿 Create a ritual of gentle movement (a walk, a breath practice) each time you feel emotionally static.

  • πŸ”₯ The Challenger’s Path: I would call out the illusion of progress and make a new path with my bare hands.

    • πŸ”₯ Interrupt the next internal monologue of disappointment with an act of defianceβ€”a cold plunge, a bold message, a scream.

The truth is simple and hard: You’re always one choice away from a new path.
