Word of the Week #432:

Metronome

You know, as much as I like to call myself wild and erratic and this and that, there are some things that stay relatively steady.

I have heard a lot of people talk about their energy levels varying across the day based on what and when they eat, yada yada yada, a thousand other things… Somehow, I am almost never affected by this. Yes, I have gears and moods, but by far, I am always able to get things done.

And, I don’t know, it comes pretty easy to me. I am able to just instinctively drown out any of the noise that tends to follow us, or reverberate with us, and keep moving forward. Because that’s all that matters in the end, right? When one thing is done, you move to the next.

Each time before going to bed, after waking up every morning, after every meal, at any moment of emptiness, I am aware of everything else that needs to be done, and I have only one question on my mind, “What next?”

How long can I keep pushing like this? We’ll know when we know, I suppose. Unless I never do stop, right?

We’ll rest when we’re dead. Till then, let’s keep moving forward.
