When we look to our life from long-term perspective, we remember nice whiles and unpleasant experiences. And what is between them? I think, that there is a lot of “usually staff” which we do. If we are not under the stress, we perceive it as “ordinary pleasant period” without any special events. We feel, that our life flows steadily.
The different feeling is, when we want to remember about the details in stress period. Our mind does not perceive the stress as positive feeling and push it back from our memory. This period is than perceived as an “empty” black hole in our memory. We lost part of our life, we stop to live.
Short term stress can help us to achieve something immediately, but if it takes long time it hold us back and affects our feeling deeply in the heart. The heart stop to enjoy … to feel the flow of life. It is up to us, when we stop the stress and when we start to live. We can choose what we want and what price we want to pay for it. The time is the most expensive currency – our life is the unique capital which we have and we can decide how we will use it.
