Even though sometimes, things happen to us in life and we will never understand why, there is something beautiful that can come out of a place of pain, if we allow so. It's when we run from pain that we find ourselves down a path of confusion and unhappiness. We stay busy, keep moving, so we don't have to look at the wound bleeding out right in front of us, pouring out from our hearts. We try to block it with a cork, a lousy bandiad, a temporary pain reliever, but this darn tug keeps coming back every time we sit down in a quiet room alone and have nothing left to distract us from our own self.
Then the waves of how one truly feels, reflect steps in. Everything hits you like a crashing wave, because you have been trying to hold all of the water up with this dam only made by human hands.
For such a young age, I have learned many lessons and been shown testimonies of wisdom and understanding. These moments have changed my life, some hard, some remarkable.
We all say it and hear it said over and over again. "Life is short, follow your dreams." Yet, more than half of our population is sitting at a job that cannot bear to believe they spend over 40 hours a week doing. That is more time you spend anywhere else. So you better love that place! In the reality of it all, that place better feel like home, But the struggle for most, is that it doesn't.
So how come we keep doing it? Why do we keep doing the things we do? I believe there are many insights in this... and I dare to travel down a road that will challenge not only your mind, but your heart's intent. I am fighting the good fight, with a desire to step away from the expected cultural path of a normal mundane life, and step into a journey of radical joy and experience a life worth living for!
