Notes to my Younger Self: Part 2

By

To believe or not to believe;

To seek or not to seek;

Well, that’s the wrong question.

Or rather an incomplete question.


You see:

Somedays you believe in God.

Somedays you seek God.

Somedays you believe in yourself.

Somedays you seek yourself.


It is only when you pause believing in yourself;

That you truly seek yourself.

It is only when you pause seeking yourself;

That you truly believe in yourself.


The struggle is not knowing when to believe and when to seek.

Because it is neither a straight line,

Nor a never-ending cycle.

What it is, is a spiral.


A spiral rhythm between believing and seeking.

It is how you come back to the things you thought you understood.

Only to see the deeper truths.


You need to seek, to choose the right path.

You need to believe, to actually walk the path.

However, be careful:


Believe too much, and you become blind.

Seek too much, and you can’t move.


Don’t let belief become an excuse to not seek.

Don’t let the search become an excuse to not believe.


Move with caution, but move.

For the only way is through.


Learn when to believe;

Learn when to seek.


To be continued…
