While we try to teach our children all about life, Our children teach us what life is all about.
Some of us just wake up in the morning, struggle for a minute to really get up from the comfy of the bed, dash off for a quick shower and live routine of the day. The rest is history.
Some people just go on with their whole life not knowing the purpose of living this life in the first place. The days go by week, weeks turn to month, months become year and before we know it, our life has stretched far beyond the edge of time. How many of us unequivocally sure what we really want in this life? Are we living our life the way we always want it?
That's something I've always asked myself way back then. Do we even need a reason to live? It's hard to really figure out what we really want, because sometimes what we always want most probably not the best thing for us. For sure, we all have our own reasons; fulfilling desires or pursuing dreams that keep us going on, all this time. At some points though, I can't help but to wonder, how far have I accomplished? Am I working a job? Do I live by my dreams? Is this how things should be?
Sometimes, I feel the need to ask those questions to myself, just to keep me on the go and making sure that I won't be out of track. Where this will lead me to? Well, like I said, we all have our reasons and for me, as long as I live and die happily, it's up to me to decide the next-big-thing for my life. After all, life can sometimes be promising with the fact that everything may unknowingly change within a split second. Even when things start to make sense, all you have are just a mere glimpse of yesterday. Everyday is a winding road. Every turn is a surprise. Apparently, it is easier to just make rules as we go and see how things going to turn out, because sometimes we have to live by coincidence. If everything seems all good and fine, just remember to be prepared for the worst. For sure, we never know what future holds for us but to face the uncertainties somehow, to me, makes life feels more adventurous and worth living.
We will never understand everything in this entire universe and that's the simple truth. There are many things around us that will remain slightly or otherwise out of our comprehension. I was once a perfectionist with high expectations in every single thing I did. Well, expectation usually comes along with disappointment that each time when something goes wrong, I would end up more confuse, uptight and in some ways it slowly relegates my self-esteem. So, I start to let loose, keep my hand wide open for any possibilities to come and embrace what life has to offer. Things may even right suddenly go wrong, but it is much better to accept the fact and get on with our lives but of course, with some lessons to be learned. No one can go back and change a bad beginning, but anyone can start now and create a successful ending. There will always be tomorrow. Just let bygones be bygones.
This gives me the idea that life might actually lead to opportunities but pretty much in a different way. It's either you take it and own it, or just let it slip away. You have to give your best shot and survive to live the most out of it. There will be those times when you need to make the best choice out of options you have but the fact is, you could never have it all. Opportunity is a road to success for people who seek for it. Life should not be limited or bounded to any particular reason because of our circumstances and sometimes it's good to be stepping out of comfort zone and being more that we think we could be. Learn to take up challenges and discover new things in life. There are many things in life that could surprisingly lead us to be more out of ourselves. Never let something that you can't do to stop you from doing something that you can do. Don't be afraid to dream and never stop dreaming. You won't loose anything. Of course, life is never smooth. There will always be ups and downs along the way. I'd say, just enjoy the ride. Bottom line, cherish the moment while it last. And yes, good things never last.
Sometimes when we are busy searching for the meaning of life, we may by chance, miss out great things around us. Life is like a never ending story, and the search is never ends.
It shouldn't be.
