It seems the years of failures and rejections have robbed me of the desire to change anything in my life anymore.
There seems a certain security and comfort in routine, but with the much regretable flip side of remaining stagnant in life with nothing much changing. I’m feeling more and more disconnected and not in control as the years pass me by.
One needs a certain level of energy, enthusiasm and courage for ambitions to be realised, which seem sadly lacking in my life these days.
I mean sure in theory the desire is there to change…I hate working a dead end job in a small town, struggling financially, being in no relationship , and having only family as true friends. I just feel too tired to even try and change any of it anymore.
It’s almost a feeling of resignation that this is the life the universe has chosen for me..no need to try and swim against the current, you will only end up drowning. Its like; I am where I am and the position I am in because this is my lot in life, a destiny of such.
This particular expression of the life force may be one which is designed to experience much heartache and setbacks, but I believe it is still none the less worthy or valued. The universe doesn’t have a concept for experiencing hot without cold, and I am providing some of this cold.
I got thinking the other day, what if I did want to change my life? How would I go about it?
I would have to start from scratch pretty much…move back to the city with just a fast car and no money (que tracey chapman song)….i would then have to spend just about every waking moment of my existence trying to self improve.
I would have to try and give up drinking, while learning how to really scrimp and save on next to nothing while maybe even trying to up-skill yet again. Maybe I would read every Tony Robin book, while also searching for a way to land a dream job without letting anxiety get in my way.
Counciling, study, toast masters, volunteering, job hunting, social networking, job networking, A.O meetings, exercising,…the list goes on and on.
To me, all this sounds that exhausting, I doubt I could find it within myself to even make a start.
..and what say I did make a new start and I was actually making some sort of progress, and all for what??
The universe, if it so desires can change it all in an instant anyway, and I reckon I would find myself back to square one in no time at all…. From past experience when I have made those changes, i have also found that despite my efforts, time after time, due to unforeseen circumstance(s) I find myself being taken down a few pegs..back to where I belong perhaps. Can anyone relate?
