Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. -The Desiderata
Self-esteem is not static. Within boundaries, depending on the ebb and flow of the tide of our lives, our sense of well being naturally fluctuates. Many of our low points, however, have not so much to do with a particular problem as they do with the state of mind we bring to that problem.
We may not always have control over certain fears. If we were once badly burned, for example, we may always have a residual overreaction to fire -and there are, of course, many kinds of fire. But we do have control over the fatigue and loneliness that set us up for fear attacks. Of all the efforts we may make to bolster self-esteem, avoiding such fatigue and loneliness may be the most important.
Is it always necessary to work as hard as we do? Can we never take a break or a little nap? When was the last time we took a vacation? And how often do we set aside time for a good long conversation with a friend? Sometimes "alone" is not a healthy place to be. Especially if we're also tired. Those are times when our fears find us most vulnerable.
I will avoid getting too tired to feel good about myself.
Las letras que aquí plasmo, no las escribo para ser criticado, ni busco una calificación por parte de nadie. Sólo escribo para mí. Escribo por escribir. Aunque la crítica puede ser constructiva, a veces lleva el intento de desapruebo, de incitar un cambio y de confirmarse a los ideales de el que critica, y no necesariamente como un aliciente. Este medium es más que un confidente, es una forma de desahogo.
