Have you ever been lost?
"Is the Pope Catholic?! I get lost all the time!"
I didn't mean geographically lost. I meant physiologically. Have you ever reflected about your purpose in life? If you were on the right path in your own life? Or, if you have ever made a difference in someone elses?
Have you dreamt into the future to come out wondering about the challenges that lay ahead? Experienced something so frustrating that left yourself asking "what's the point?".
Life is full of challenges. Champions take them on, one at a time, without the fear of failure, to build their legacy. Others let fear win and die in comfort.
The only consistency throughout our lives is change. Change is inevitable. It is difficult and it is challenging. Change is terrifying but it is something that even the fastest cannot out run.
Trying to avoid the inevitable will leave you feeling lost and I have yet to find a GSP with the proper coordinates to happiness.
"What about those people who are still struggling to find happiness, where do we go?"
Happiness will never be found (If you're looking for it, stop!). Happiness is a choice. It is having the ability to stand up to those difficult questions that you ask yourself and finding the courage to face whatever answers you may find. Happiness comes from the way you choose to live your life!
Call my bluff?!
If you choose to live your life "to the fullest" by simply doing what makes YOU "happy" in that moment... You will drown in a sea of difficult questions lost with confusion and sorrow. Excepting the challenge of change and breaking the fear of complacency will allow your mind to become open to interpretation.
"And, if I choose against managing an open mind?"
To be honest I'm amazed that you have a mind at all. However, this is my opinion: those of you feeling lost and alone are wasting your lives by dwelling over the inevitable...
Change is a good thing! Embrace it and have a "Happy" New Year...
So in the words of my good friend Leo Tolstoy:
“Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing themselves.”
