There is two concepts that I have been dealing with the past
few days that brought upon me a new understanding and a new enlightened thought.
We always hear about setting goals; believing in your
destiny; keep moving towards your goals; be positive look for the good in everything;
blah blah, the list goes on and on. And yes I believe those things but; I get
down too, I get lonely, I get sad, hell I get severely depressed at times.
So
the past while I’ve been struggling with myself as per usual, self-sabotaging me
lowering my standards, blame my expectations and list goes on! Even though I
have luckily been trained by repeat and fail that being positive is the best
way forward but forward where? I always get stuck at forward where? Trust me I
have some serious goals, I have good work ethic when I’m not fighting myself. But
overall I consider myself relatively well rounded. And yet still I have all
these questions in myself.
I would come up with little mantra’s like you can do this,
keep pushing on you’re going to make it! And so on and at times this doesn’t even
help. Then I look back and remember why I started looking back to see forward! And
that helps a bit. But tonight I came to an understanding something I have more
and more of as time goes on it seems.
It’s not just merely a fact of knowing
where you’re going and having all these dreams and goals and destinies and
processes of improvement but rather a choice, the choice to choose a better
outcome the choice that we don’t control what happens tomorrow we actually have
very little input in what happens apart from studying and working hard we don’t
control much but we have the choice to keep moving forward for better, not just
merely to become something else a better person or more financially free but to
actually make our lives better. We have no control over what happens tomorrow
but the decisions we make about today can ultimately shape the way of the
things happening tomorrow!
If you let something negative impact you negatively and you
keep dwelling and asking about it your going to miss the opportunities that
lies ahead of you, you might not see the life lesson, you might not take a
moment to meet your next best friend, you might miss a chance to change someone’s
life for the better.
We must tread very cautiously yet confidently in the path of
being our best as we are each moment, I am not saying that you shouldn’t push
yourself and just be happen and kind not at all. I am merely repeating the few
words that made me realize how important every moment really is.
Every moment spent being angry or sad or unhappy, unfulfilled
whatever ; is a moment that you are missing out on the best thing you have
that moment. Now this is not going to take away sadness or anything serious but
it has the potentiality of changing everything your future holds the greatest
gifts you have ever dreamed of if you just keep moving forward, does it matter
if you make it?
I’d say no! What matters is the way you arrive, with a happy
open heart. So yes no matter what keep moving forward, not by having to push,
or pull and fight, but because of your magic! Because you have a lightened heart
. . . not because you are inherently happy but because you choose to be happy,
you choose to accept the cards your dealt and keep pushing forward, try it and
you will see there is more happy faces on the way when you’re smiling than when
you’re not!
So the concepts that made me think of this all was one from
a quote from Walt Disney, which was used in the movie “Meet the Robinsons” - Walt
Disney “Around here, however, we don't look backwards for very long. We
keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're
curious...and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.”
The second comes from a video I watch almost every day and
never did it sink in until today, the author Unknown says: you can’t connect
the dots looking forward, you just have to believe that somehow they will and
they do looking back you’ll see!.
That doesn’t mean that life suddenly jumped around and all’s
well? Not at the least but I feel for the first time in a long time, that everything
is going to be better because I decide that I will see everything in a better
light, to make the choice because I want to follow the path of discovery and
new things new magic and wonderful places because I believe that it is out there
and in here!
I hope that perhaps this message makes sense to someone else
and that it may have the same effect on someone out there same as it had on me!
If you have a similar story or a different story that you believe will touch
someone’s perhaps somewhere share it please and perhaps with our sharing our
thoughts and stories we might even change someone’s world. Good night!
