Realm.

Sometimes I get curious. Curious about my potential to do things. I mean, when I say that I've given my absolute best on or for something, have I actually done that? I mean, is 'absolute' a limit that is preventing me from going further than what I can or did? Can I excel, if I just don't evaluate my success rate? Or should I just stop my attitude to build a boundary?

Hello there, I'm the Earthian.

There are two ways to look at a boundary. One, you can look at it as your realm. You can look at it as your empire. Your empire to which you own limitless control. Your empire that will forever be yours and nobody can loot anything away from that. It's all yours, every square inch of it, all of it.
And two, you can look at it as your limit. A limit that just makes you believe that you've attained the highest possible status in whatever you did. A limit that prevents you from conquering more because in your mind, you already are the best. But as long you're there at the top, you can relish it.

Thoughts like this make me wonder about the differences between being happy and being content. Clearly, case one makes one be happy and content with whatever he has achieved, which in itself is a great deed. And being content means that everything he has, has a boundary even his happiness.
And case two, well, all it does is provide millions of uncertainties. It either makes him be happy but never fully content or just the other way around.

Just a little something to ponder about. Do you feel either one of these?

Lots of love, peace.
