Dear Diary.
It is impressive how we see only material achievements as major goals to be achieved. Today I found myself thinking about it and came to the conclusion that we, human beings, myself included, are very naive about our achievements and the difficulties we need to overcome in order to achieve them.
This year, we all had to put our material goals aside, this changed my perspective of achievements. Because I have to postpone my plans and have no idea when they will be executed, the biggest achievement I want to achieve has become mental and emotional stability.
This year has brought a roller coaster of feelings and fears that made my own thoughts become my biggest difficulties, this being the most difficult difficulty to be overcome, since we can't stop thinking.
The uncertain future, the imminent danger generated in me a lot of hopelessness, which brought me a lot of bad feelings, what I wanted most was to be well and reach peace in my mind. It was not easy and I believe I still have a long way to go, but amid the tortuous thoughts and the difficulties they impose inside me, I managed to find a way to calm myself, which is my biggest goal.
Like me, the journey is long, but I am managing to live one day at a time and commit myself to today, now, building my shape and mind for the future.
