Let’s rephrase that. Do I want things to be easy? Hmm.
Yes?
No.
Sometimes.
Do I actually want easy or …
Do I want …
Time with my wife to bond
Time to read a book
Time to write
Fill in the blank.
I don’t want easy. I want to fill my life with meaningful things that matter to me. I’m awake over half the day. Isn’t there enough time to do that? Or am I searching for meaning in all the wrong places when it’s right here in front of me?
I had a coach accuse the team of wanting erging to be easy. That we athletes were always looking for the easy way out. He was such an unempathetic imp of a man and he was wrong. We weren’t looking for easy we were looking for meaning. For the point of suffering when there was a better way.
I don’t want easy. I want to align how I feel and what I want in this life so I am at ease. There’s a difference.
