Welcome to Shoshin, my journal of lessons from this journey we call "life".

Perspective

Story

This has to be the most profound shit I have come across in a while.

I loved it so much, I got it printed and placed it right above my desk.

At times, I glance at it. 

The world gets quieter.

The pressure fades.

And I remember:

This moment?

It’ll never come again.

I think about how far I have come, 

and I can't even believe that I'm so content with myself…

that genuinely, If i was on deaths door,

I could die knowing I've lived a good life. (when tf did I become so spiritual?)

That I would go out with peace.

I haven't even graduated highschool yet…

There’s something beautiful about being here

not chasing

not planning

not building

just being.

Become

Seriously. Appreciate the moment.

Take five seconds.
Breathe.
Smile.
You’re still here.

And that’s enough.

Remember, its who you become on the journey.
