The thing about quicksand that most people often forget is the fact that it could bring the people who are in its surface not just in the lowest of lows but also into something higher or above its surface; one can even get the hell out of it. Part of the reason why most people had mislaid their eyes in seeing that there are still ways for them to be able to get out of whatever unfavorable state they’re all currently in, is because this quicksand – unhelpful entities, hate-worthy people, problems and challenges are just too difficult to deal with. I argue that difficulty, be it in its epistemological meaning and its practice, does not imply that any form of it is impossible to get through. Difficulty is not impossibility, infeasibility and permanence – never was and will never be.
If the present situation isn’t working for you, be flexible enough to adjust. Don’t beat yourself up because nothing will gonna get any better by doing so.
