The clock is ticking
The past, the present, the future … isn’t time just relative? As humans, we place so much emphasis on protecting ourselves from failure and pain that we sometimes forget that it is okay to fall down the rabbit hole. It is okay to get lost for a minute. Instead we get stuck in the moment analyzing what went wrong in our past, worrying about how that affects our future and never fully living in the present.
Our efforts to protect ourselves from hurt can actually have the complete opposite effect. We hurt ourselves more by taking moments of happiness for granted. As much as I hate to give credit to the gym teacher or the pedophile in “Donnie Darko,” sometimes fear really is the source of all evil. It is sad how we allow ourselves to crumble over such stupidity.
