Assimilate

While I am ruminating through thoughts on a topic, I stumbled upon a "word of the day" post idea. So, in turn, I will try this and see how it works. Well, whenever I think of assimilation I think of adjusting or understanding something(s) to a full extent. It may sound like a stretch but hope it works.

 Definition here: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/assimilate

 Whenever we assimilate, it makes us think of how we must adjust to changes that either affect or transcend into our routines or norms. The norms or routines may be something we are used to, or we look to acclimate to something that is new that we want to set as a routine. Perhaps, assimilation is not a bad thing because what it could do is shape how we confront issues, the ones that we may dislike to a full degree. Additionally, it could shape a new level of maturity for us; to develop a new mindset of how to resolve issues or problems that seem unpleasant. One thing may be certain is that assimilation is meant not to be a terrible thing because we all face assimilation regardless of who we are. What will become a determining factor is how we reject its purpose and whether we want to encounter for what it is.

The Inevitable -- Original Poem

It was meant to happen Someone or something unexpected  It interrupts you, discourages you It was meant to happen It has changed you, your life It has made you live for more Someone or something that was meant for you You yearn to know the reason But it remains unknown, hidden It was meant to happen It confuses you, frustrated you It has angered you, enticed you Made you feel defeated But you never gave up You strived to learn more You remained persistent, never gave up It was meant to happen Someone or something unexpected has occurred to you Don't let it go You will know it soon enough It was the inevitable

Giver

An original poem I wrote on Saturday, May 9, 2015, that I am sharing from my journal. Note: This poem is dedicated to people who give and thrive in life while giving. Sacrifice a lot and expect nothing In return realize your worth Do not let others act condescendingly  Give in light of their ungratefulness  Ungratefulness shall sink -- too much weight, too dense Give to others and enrich oneself Oneself is worthy to feel content Live happily with ease, expect nothing In return you realize giving is worth your life  Life is fulfilled and enriched with purpose

Does generosity indicate weakness?

Just to point out something: This post is just an opinion of a topic I have thought about lately. It is something that I contemplate often times because I view myself as nice, and at times too nice. To me, it is almost sickening that I cannot relinquish my worried mind about being too giving. However, instead of ranting about me, I want you to deem this point of importance -- generosity does not conceal your beautiful soul.  There is so much to fawn about an even-keeled temperament toward other people. You try not to overstep your boundaries. You occupy your mind with the right words to say when conversing with someone. You literally feel frozen at the inkling of what it means to present yourself around others; not to give any vulnerability or sign of discomfort. Ultimately, there are many thoughts that ruminate in your mind, but really it is too difficult to formulate the words to say without hesitation.  Basically, I would like for you to think about this thought: sto...
