Loving the Mundane
Loving the Mundane—is a piece of writing where you see bits of my dirty laundry as well as a rather uncommon idea of self-love.
I unburden myself of the pressure of making others see me as I like to see myself. And that begins by accepting my flaws. I confront the fact that setting too high a standard for myself can be a form of self-sabotage too. How is it that I’m so full of passion before a task and have nothing but exhaustion left after?
Perfection robs one of the joys of everyday. It gives an illusion of control that leaves you feeling hollow despite achieving what you always dreamed of. Why must I always burn myself out to do what could be done with more nonchalance and less strain?
The mundaneness and mediocrity that haunt me will inevitably meet me in all paths of life. It is what I make out of them that matters.
Concomitantly, this understanding is the beginning of everything that’s to come. And so I don’t make big promises to myself. I just ask myself what all (self) love could empower me with.
