Tapitoo: the choice
regular intervals of mental paralysis is just sleep
rest and relaxation is but sleep
recreation is but a time of sleep
release is also sleep
there is no correct answer - except in politics
4 perspectives of an object. 4 different outlooks. more perhaps but for now just 4.
can you see the difference in the 4 statements above? the various perspectives which people have on just one simple verb: sleep. perspective is the way one views the world, and is the effect of a particular stimulus or influence on one. through ones eyes, one can see pain in happiness, suffering in rejoicing, and so on. or one can see everything in vice versa. the difference is choice. one may be in pain, but to choose to see suffering in the pain or the purpose of it all makes all the difference.
to see pain and pain alone is tumultuous, to internalize it is worse. to see the world as a perfectly functioning body and one as the extra gear is equally tormenting. but the choice is but ones, just as eyes are ones own.
my prayer is to be strong. to be strong in christ firstly; to be dependent on him for strength, because my will has become my bedrock. strength in the form of natural steroids flows from pushing ones limits; adrenaline and sleep do not mix, especially at night. secondly, to be strong for others. i pray that i may be strong also to be a pillar of strength for others who need it. there are so many people who are tired nowadays, so many people needing rest. i pray that i may be the helping hand who people can reach towards for help. finally i pray for strength to choose god's perspective over my own whatever the circumstance.
