THIS OR THAT


      I just know it; I can feel it deep down within me. After all is said and done, there’s going to be a time when I’ll be alone. And in that time, I might be sitting, standing, or lying, and I’ll sure reflect on all my life has been. And at that point, nothing is going to matter, just the one thought that would dominate all others in my mind. It’s either I lived my life as I should, or I didn’t. Either I touched someone or I didn’t. Either I made a difference in someone’s life or I didn’t. Either I answered a question in the universe or I left another question to be answered. Either I lived and loved or I just existed. Either I made every breath count or didn’t. Either I’ll be remembered forever or I would be forgotten in the twinkle of an eye. Either I rose to great heights or I was stuck on the ground. Either I discovered my purpose and destiny or I got lost chasing mirages. Either I reminisce about what could, would, or should have been or I tell stories of how I made history. Either I remember and talk about great moments I once had, or I create more great moments every single step of the way.
      I guess it’s a good thing that I’m having these thoughts now, it either means my life is coming to an end or I’m preparing to live a better life than I am living right now. I’d definitely go with the latter.

CHANGE

It’s been a long while since I wrote on here, it’s one of those things everyone does or should do every once in a while – re-evaluating priorities. I’ve tried writing other stuff in my ‘little break’ from reality; I’ve written a novel (fictional), I’ve read very little, thought very hard, avoided individuals and basically everyone who cares about me or my existence. I’ve got to admit it was not as I planned it to be, but I do admit that no matter how much you love your own company, it gets lonely every once in a while. Quite frankly, I never thought I’d be writing about this topic. I’ve been wanting to write it, but for some crazy reason I couldn’t. That crazy and insane reason was that I wanted to experience it before I wrote about it. I think you’d agree that that is not such a bad idea. Apart from the reality check, another reason I haven’t written on here is that writing is one way I say what I truly mean (even though it’s not easy). If I didn’t mean something, then I probably wo...

ENCOURAGEMENT

Encouragement according to a well known dictionary is support of a kind that inspires confidence and a will to continue or develop. I think the definition fits the word, or doesn’t it? This word in question requires a great need, a man or woman does not need this word unless that need is there. Encouragement. I’m pretty sure this sounds like an everyday word when you say it. I mean, its meaning has never really sunk deep enough for it to have an effect in most people’s lives. We use and misuse this word as much as we like but it goes a long way in doing and undoing in the lives of people.                 “Encouragement”, each time you say or don’t say that word or act it in every instance and with everybody, something goes off or comes on in the lives of those affected. Encouragement could come in lots of forms; it could be a pat on the back, or just a word, or just a hug,...

OBOI... YOU TOO WORRY!

Have you ever caught yourself saying that? Or have you ever been told? Maybe not and maybe you’ve heard and maybe you’ve both heard and told yourself. One of the greatest steps to positive change is first of all admitting there’s something wrong with the status quo and that things ought not to be the way they are, and then being open to that change. Until we find something wrong with the way things are, we’d probably be stuck right where we are, without ever moving forward. If you’re not a worrier, then the rest of us can learn a lot from you. But if you are, then this write up is for you, maybe it will encourage and correct you as much as it has me. A few days ago I heard myself say I worry too much and I’ve been told a couple of times. I can recall several months ago when I said I thrived on worry. But talking about change and being open to it made me realize all I was doing was killing myself over nothing. That is exactly what worry does… it kills you. Everyone passes through tryi...
