Suddenly, A Not So Blank Mind
After more than ten years I decided to write a blog again. Something just came up, a new shift in my life. I accepted the fact that I cannot do some things anymore like I used to. Like running and basketball. I will continue my biking though and some walking sessions while listening to Spotify playlists. It is indeed 47 years that I have existed and I can't even believe it.
My Mom is 77 years old now, her health is failing but still I can see her strong spirit to survive, to do, to move. Her unwilling to succumb to stillness is always there, she still cooks and sometimes help with the laundry, still insistent to care for her outdoor plants. She cannot be stopped. Only pain can stop her.
Looking back at my life I have experienced it all. My highest position in the corporate world was Team Leader. Kind of like a supervisory role. I'm glad that it was over. Nowadays, my job is more of a consultant type of a job. I dictate my time, when and where I can do my tasks. I feel like I am semi-retired already. I get paid through Payoneer. It is very convenient. You can sign up here.
2018 was an exciting one, a bit of spice inserted into my life. I am in a relationship again after 4 years. It was awkward at first, at this age I never imagined to have someone again in my life. I am starting now to embrace a Zen inspired life. Although I'm an Atheist, I like the teachings of Zen, so peaceful and calms the mind and body.
I am so happy that I tend to tone down my life, make it slower, more peaceful. I also focus on my health, diet and processed foods intake. I eat less at night, drink alcohol less. I also stopped smoking all throughout starting 2018. Eliminated caffeine also from my diet, always conscious on my drinks.
Another thing that I did was I stopped watching the news and free TV. I get my fix from Netflix, Youtube and Facebook videos. Big Think videos are very cool for me, as they educate and enlighten me at the same time. I'm also playing Sudoku and compete with others on the Scrabble Go game.
I've been there, on the fast lane. I knew how it was, what it was, to be dragged helplessly into the whirlwind of corporate success. Yes you are on top, yes you have more money. But you will not be happy. See you on my next post! :-)
