vienna; slow down, you’re doing fine.
These days, I’ve been listening to some songs that boost my solitudes. I don’t know why but life more filled with peace and its own passion when we can deeply connected with small things around us. When we feel everything in a sense and deeply. Life turns out being way more meaningful rather than when we didn’t try to noticed small things and took it as a meaningless things. Lately, choosing to just slow down and trying not to be that ‘too ambitious’ for each steps of lives that surely stills unknown. I realized that it’s alright to not ‘rush’ everything at the same time. Not every single things supposed to be rushed.
One of Billy Joel’s song that can portray so much towards this writing is “Vienna”, and I’ve been listening to it on repeat. I tried to connect myself to the song entirely, turns out its that song that we all needed as a person who’s just entering early of adulthood. That it’s alright to disappear for awhile or as long as you want when things are seems so tough for you to carry on. That why don’t us try to slow down and just enjoy every little good things in our lives with passion and pride? What are we afraid for? As long as we can choose to slow down and take times to not rush each goals of our lives.
Choosing for ‘slow down’ or even ‘disappearing yourself’ from life stuffs won’t make you seems like you’re abandoning your life. Everyone’s timeline are different and you can’t afford things to be exactly same as what you’ve expected. Its okay when we knew other people’s timeline are way much better than us, but don’t take it as something that supposed to be rushed or being too ambitious over that until you forgot where your own life path were exactly at.
Take your time, smell the roses. You’re not in a competition.
Life will leads you to the finish line at its own right time. The timeline also won’t be exactly same like what you’ve imagined it to be. Because you never know what winds will drives you and where it’ll be. Growing old isn’t supposed to be that thing that rush you like you’re in a competition. Give yourself a chance to ask urself ‘what’s you’re hurry about?’. In the end, someday the life that you wished all this times will leads you slowly to its own place.
“Slow down you’re doing fine
You can’t be everything you want to be before your time”
Everything and everyone has its own timeline and you can’t decide your own timeline to be same like others. When others are better in their own timeline, then let them be. Someday your own body will take you wherever the place that you’re deserves to be. You can dream on over single things that you wanted, but also its good to least our expectation that not everything will come true. There some things that you’ve had planned yet it turns out didn’t happened like you wanted.
Just grab off your coffee, take a slow steps to daydream and rewind everything, remember what you have and where you are right now, and take a time to be grateful over it.
Growing old supposed to be when you enjoy every small things that you experienced and take of many appreciates for it. Take every joy of life that you have without have to rush yourself. Growing old are supposed to be when you understands that patience and timing are inseparable. Learn that growth will brings you to your own final destination when you’re just enjoy for being slow down without any fear of being left behind because you already know that your patience will deserves its own timing someday.
That every life journey will always represents passion, patience, and growth.
