Actively Participate

Have you ever felt you were on the outside of your own life?  Like everyone else is participating in your story, and that you are watching from the big screen in the corner?  If you have then I challenge you to actively participate in your own life.  Don’t say who you want to be without making that person a reality.  Be that person!  Don’t say what you want to do.  Do it!  I think many of us get discouraged when we don’t have instant gratification of our goals and accomplishments.  We have to accept that the journey is more important than the destination.  The journey makes you wiser, stronger, better.  Once you reach the destination you’re only there for a few seconds before you decide to move on from there.  Make sure your path in life is teaching you something about who you are becoming.  If you can’t look back a few years and see where your life has changed you’re not living.  Maybe your life is better, maybe it’s worse, but it’s yours!  The key is to realize it.  Spare change only becomes a dollar when you allow it to accumulate.  You have to take all of your dreams, goals, passions, and aspirations, and put them together to create your story.  What are you proud of yourself for; or not?  Whose life have you affected; or not?  What motivates you?  What are you going to do to work on these things?  Warm and dry must be the norm, not the aspiration!  We must get beyond that to achieve greatness.  You can’t spend your life chasing bills and judging yourself and others for things that seem to have gone wrong.  Sometimes things have to go wrong to force you into the right direction for your life.  I pray that whatever you r path is you get on it.  It may be a rocky, dirty, muddy uphill climb, but it’s your path.  Walk it with God, because with God anything is easy because it’s already done.  Be Blessed!
