Emptiness and selflessness are the two most important concepts a person can learn. Rolling with the punches is a simple life skill that I'm slowly learning. I'm re-learning how to LIVE, and it's scary but it feels good. I'm ready for re-direction and I'm ready to re-assess my goals, and prioritize better. It's easy to say that little petty things won't get to you, to look at the bigger picture, look at the world and see that some issues in your life, shouldn't really even be issues, but applying that to your life can be harder than expected. I think to find my purpose I've got to completely surrender myself to the universe and stop living by how things SHOULD be, and just simply let things be. Let nature do what it does and try my best to hande it all graciously. To put love into everything that I do, to gain humility, to APPRECIATE, to spend every second exactly as I want to. To erase all my preconceived notions about the "right" way to live, the right way to have relationships, the right way to love, the right way to grow up. I won't try to rush all of this, it takes time to really, truly embrace every obstacle that comes to you, the good and the bad, but if I have faith in myself in any area this is it. I think that life has great things in store for me, but I've got to take part in it, I have to really start believing in it or I have nothing.
