I am a firm believer in the saying "Life is what you make it." Within all of it's simplicity there is a deeper message. What do you do to get to where you want to everyday? I don't mean how you commute from point A to B, be it by car or bus. But what steps do you take everyday in order to mold the person you want to be?! It seems like we (and when I say we I just mean in our general society) are always complaining of the lack of time there is to get anything we want done. We seem to fall into the stream of workoholics and angry adults, it takes us under like a tsunami. Without warning we become robots and seemingly lifeless. There is no trace of how we converted from happy and goal oriented to sad and pressured to meet the high standards of living. But some how it happened. Everyday I am a product of this happy person full of life, turned reserved adult who sits quietly waiting to be awaken by the 5 PM hour. My JOB is unfulfilling and monsterously starving my soul of true content. But complaining about my unhappiness will not make it any better. Being angry at my bitchy co-workers is not an excuse to shut down. So going back to the profound saying that Life is what you make it, what do I do to better myself right now as oppose to trying to take control of fate and what lies ahead?
1. I start a blog to develop my writing habits
2. I take a writing course to sharpen my skills and talents
3. I get my passport so I can travel the world
4. I buy a car so I can get where I want when I want
5. I have to love myslef and those around me, as much as humanly possible
I don't know exactly what life has in store for me but every moment and every opportunity is life teaching me a lesson, giving me a test or helping to push me in the right direction. We'll see what happens next.
