I personally think that it's very hard to be that way, but if one has the level of endurance that could tune the levels of ambition and the feeling of non-constant striving for something in a way that does not let you lose control over the reality of failing, or over what you can or cannot give up on, then it might be possible like it depends on your choice of no-lose or no-win things, based on the intensity of your ambition or your peace-seeking character.

That's a deep question. To be honest, I can't seem to figure it out. I don't really know what's making my heart sing today. I just feel nothing, nothing at all. How can we know the answer?

@Holly Lewis To be honest, sometimes I just feel numb, and that makes me want to do nothing but sleep. But at other times, I love learning everything I can.

To be honest, this is a very complicated question for me because I feel that, most of the time, even when I have so much gratitude to offer someone, I just can't bring myself to say it out loud. Yes, In my heart, I feel like saying a million grateful things to them. Of course, I often think about the people I respect and the good things they have taught me, but it's hard to approach them and say, "Hey, I've been thinking about you lately, and I'd like to thank you a zillion times." Perhaps it's because I know how busy people are. In my mind, I assume they might not even have time to reply to a word or two in their already loud and busy lives. But I think I can still express my gratitude by thanking them in my heart. Maybe I can also pour my gratitude onto paper, since paper has more patience than a person ever could, haha. And yeah, gratitude and confession are things I enjoy the most. I don't think I'll ever run out of gratitude because, my goodness, I have so many things to be grateful for, as if I was born to say "thank you," haha. For example, I'm grateful for the beautiful post you shared, the thoughtful opinions you shared, and the profound article you shared, which I'll surely read more deeply. Thank you very much.

That’s a truly, truly deep question, and I think it exposed me to myself.. I went completely blank after reading this question, ’cause the answer did not come, and it made me feel like I am being oblivious to myself.. this question made my mind feel like a foreign land. To be honest, I am thinking of nothing right now when I’m seeing your question, this is giving me an overwhelming feeling. But yeah, sometimes I just don’t feel comfortable in my own skin when I hear someone say ‘time,’ and it’s not because of the fear of death, but my expectations for myself. I’m not proud of this feeling, though. Thank you very much for this great question!!!!

@Holly Lewis Ah, I can connect with your words. Do you find it hard to keep up with the work you are supposed to do with those anxious feelings, or do you feel those terrible feelings deeply but still do the work well anyway?
