My blank mind wants me to write, but i have nothing in mind to write about. So let's try some word vomit to help me soothe this itch to write, shall we?
Okay - I think, is an overused term as people generally desire acceptance. It is one word that gives someone a piece of approval from others or even for oneself. Saying that your work is okay - satisfactory and has passed standards has some fulfillment in a way. Saying to yourself that you are okay, makes you feel okay even for a while. Sometimes you have to repeat it to yourself a million times to try and believe that it's true. But being okay for the past month or so made me realize, that it's okay to not be okay.
Because not being okay means -- To disagree and stand for what you believe is right. To be vulnerable. To be simply not okay. Or you could look at it as -- To exceed being satisfactory. Or even to say that you are exceptional. But I think the last two are too positive for the general mood of this entry. hehe.
Simply put, it's okay to not be okay. And to accept where you are now allows you to evaluate and help yourself to move forward. Sometimes, it helps to give yourself a little nudge to make sure you are stepping towards the right direction.
As with anything in life, it's all about striking that balance. It's experiencing the cool breeze after days of warmth or saying hello to the sun after very cold nights. It was okay until it was not and then life happens and it will be okay again. Sometimes you have to find it yourself - reasons to smile amidst broken days - like finding your juju beads. Sometimes, life just happens and makes everything all right.
So yes, you'll be fine, I'll be fine. We'll be fine. *there there*
PS. My word vomit is fine.
