Learning to write to learn to write to learn

I’m starting to believe that “write on the Internet, even if no one reads it” is underrated life advice. it doesn’t benefit other people necessarily, it benefits *you* bc the people who do find/like your writing and then reach out are so much more likely to be compatible with you

Take nothing personally. Not even all our thoughts are "ours." Knowing which are welcome and which are just poison is a good start.

Time has this stubborn tendency to move forward even when we’d like for it to stop, and to slow down when we can’t wait to get to the next part.

Happy Vague Nothing Time before the new year.

The forgiving yourself part of life is a tough one. But it's necessary. No one can do it for you.

Life happens within the contrasts — when there is change. It happens in the shifts, in the big and small decisions, in the inflection points.

I don’t think living on the edge is about living dangerously, rather, it’s being in it for the ride when life takes its sharp turns.

[Kevinn Chan @kvnnchn]

A straight line with no change is boring. Contrast is art.

The same might be said for the art of living.

Life’s most meaningful moments seem to always come as results of some form of difficulty — acts of service, kindness, love, all requiring some amount of work and sacrifice.

Glory isn’t simply elation, winning, or getting that bread. Rather, it’s that special type of high that comes only as a result of a prior great difficulty. Glory is earned.

"There is a community of the spirit.
Join it, and feel the delight
of walking in the noisy street
and being the noise.

Drink all your passion and be a disgrace.
Close both eyes to see with the other eye.
Open your hands if you want to be held."

“What Is It To Be Genuinely Happy?”

[Kevinn Chan @kvnnchn]

Although we may not know exactly how we will get to our goals, I'd like to think that some part of us already knows how it would feel when we do. The mind's eye has already seen it.

I think a calling might feel something like this:

[Kevinn Chan @kvnnchn]

Whatever we make with our lives, everything goes back to that first little choice. It's the first step that defies inertia. Momentum literally begins here. Any product or energy that is created as a result, owes its existence to that first choice.

[Kevinn Chan @kvnnchn]

Every crazy idea is a seed in our heads. Our job is to protect it. When it's ready to be shared, the right people will water it.

[Kevinn Chan @kvnnchn]

Meaning isn’t found in the end, nor is it a precursor to beginning anything. Rather, it is a by-product of action or the choice for inaction.

Meaning is in being engaged in an endeavor, in getting to a place, in looking for a person, in becoming a person.
