Today has to be one of my better days for today I have found the time to think. Thinking and overall reflecting is something I try to find time for to make sure that I stick to the right path and do not get side tracked. I need to do this more often for I always find myself doing things at the last minutes or not doing the things that matter most.
Something was different today that some how inspired me to look at what I am doing with my life right now and what I need to do with the life I plan to have. I can't really say what made me achieve this epiphany but something sparked this thought that made me realize what I should have seen from the beginning. I think I might have a general idea of what made me come to this conclusion.
For the past few weeks really a month I have done a lot of reflecting trying to see what I wanted to do with my life and what events/elements of the life I have lived thus far can help me decide. For starters I may sound like I think too much in my entries but most of the time I don't think enough. I lack the ability to act on things that I wish I had acted on differently if I had the chance. Overtime however I learn to accept that what happened happened and that I must continue to move forward.
Things that I have worked hard for in the past really leave an impression that reminds me of the hard work that must go into anything we do that we expect to get something out of. There are no short cuts to success and with diligence anyone can make it. It's easy to say that but confronting this idea for some reason breeds fear in the hearts and minds of the person. It is natural for us to feel this way with decisions that may concern the life we have in front of us. However we must learn to tame this beast so that our lives may continue to coexist.
When in search for an answer I act like a historian and look back at the examples of prior people to see what kind of solution they came up with to address the issue. My issue however is not invasion or disease but choice. I have to learn to choose what my calling is in this life and what I want to be known for before I leave this world. I look back at the examples set by my parents, my friends, and the people I have worked with and decided that I cannot determine what my calling in life is.
The simplest solution is sometimes the one looked over the most. There's no reason to get scientific when the answer you look for is evident to everyone that knows the kind of person you are. I have not lived enough to determine what my calling is and what to expect in the years to come. Not enough can be controlled making me feel that the best solution is to be a well rounded person that is open to change and will be ready to make the right decision when the time comes for it.
No one is perfect in this world and seeking perfection can drive someone to the brink of insanity. We must learn to accept our faults and try to be better at what we do each and everyday. The brick walls we will face are there to prove how badly we want something. When we are able to break through these walls and accomplish the goals we set only then will we be able to understand that we did our best and did the right thing; giving us peace at mind.
