Just a thought or two. Who reads this any way?
Well, since it is 4:42AM right now and I have nothing better to do, I thought I might go ahead and share a couple of thoughts with any of you fine folks who may read this.
I am not really the best I could be. I mean really, who ever reaches their full potential, right? However, I think I need to strive harder to better myself and not just settle for who I am at the moment.
I need to have that drive.
With that said, I don't think I will ever truly fail. I have an awesome family who are the most supportive and loving group of people a person could ask for. I know that no matter what they will always be there to catch me if I fall. I want to make them proud and I believe this will always keep me out of (too much) trouble and make something of myself.
Because I don't want to be successful for success's sake. I want to be able to help my loved ones when the need arises. I want them to know that every thing will be ok if something goes wrong, just like they have done for me and will continue to do for me.
I want to get at least a master's degree. I don't want to settle for less. My father has shown me how much such a thing is worth and I have tremendous respect for people trying to achieve this goal, no matter their age.
I also have tremendous respect for those who have made their own way and have worked hard to get to where they are...
With that said, life is not only about achievement.
I think people tend to try to live in the fast lane when really one needs to enjoy the simple fine things in life. All the hugs, a full belly, a sunny day, a drive in the country, a cool rain, the beauty of God's creation is so limitless.
Things can just be so beautiful if you take a look.
I don't mean to sound like some awestruck hippie or something. I just feel so amazed some times by what is good in this world. I understand that I am very blessed and that there are people who have so much less than I and this saddens me and I think every one should take steps to improve these things, but the biggest crime would be not appreciating what is good in our lives.
We can go ahead and miss what we don't have and what we lost... but how about taking into consideration all that we HAVE and cherishing it while it is ours?
Life is full of loss and gain and that is okay and good.
Once you accept it, everything is much better.
So a recap.
-The World is Beautiful.
-I am thankful for my beloved family (Includes those close friends who keep me sane at times).
-It is not always about what you don't have, so try your best to believe it.
-God is good.
So what else can I say folks?
I guess I could go on for a long while... maybe tomorrow morning...
I wouldn't want to burn you people out already.
=)
Just thought I would share. I Hope this was not a crappy read.
Enjoy yourself folks, life is short.
Much Love,
