The Diminishing Candle

Depending on how you live your life, there's a chance that you will open many doors as you will closing them.

Just like a book, your life is divided into many chapters, these chapters make up the essence of your life.

Everytime a chapter is about to close, I get the craziest mix feelings. You know, the kind of feeling you get when you graduate, it's like the most insane mood swings anyone can get.

From happiness to sadness, sense of gladness but at the same time a sprinkle of regret about the things you could have done. You go through this whole ballroom dance with the feeling of an anchor pulling your chest down, suffocating you.

It can be really hard sometimes, but I think this is a good reminder for us to live in the now. To focus and enjoy, to be present where we're at.

To be grateful for the things that went well, and to be thankful that the worst case scenario didn't happened at times when things didn't go as planned.

Live your life well, Just like a Diminishing Candle just about to burn out.

Love, lead, impact & influence,
