drive.

As luck would have it, I ran into you. It may have been an accident, but I'm pretty sure fate had a hand.

Now, you are helping me create a reality where I am the driver, prophet, and navigator of my own soul.

Funny (or maybe not), I never knew it was this easy.

Before I always thought I was "unlucky." Now, looking in the rear view mirror I see those experiences have led me to this life. An awesome life.

So, nothing that happens is "bad" or "good." It just is. Who knows, the horrible failure may lead to a glorious new path.

OK...stop writing my thoughts off as crazy religious talk, that's not where I'm going with this at all. Just because I use words like path, glorious, and prophet doesn't mean I'm planning to shove Jesus down your throat. That would hurt like hell.

All I'm asking, is for you to trust yourself. Your life. Where it's headed. When you accept the situation, things are easier. Don't get me wrong, I don't want you to give up. Just acknowledge what's happening, and stop judging it before you know the full extent of the direction it's pointing you. Before you create unnecessary drama and pain.

Whether it's a bumpy road or a smooth ride, the highway of life will lead us if we want it to or not. And while you are looking in the mirror at tailgaters, you're missing the magnificent view on the horizon.

  2. It's difficult at first, but just takes a little practice ;-)

    A friend of mine once said, "Try really hard to make yourself feel bad."
    Me, "OK, done."
    Friend, "Chances are you were thinking about the past, eh? Dwelling?"
    Me,"Guilty."
    Friend,"It's when we concentrate on the present moment. The simple act of breathing, seeing, feeling, and then take judgement and time away from situations-that we are at true peace. Just be."

    Hmm...I think that's my next blog. Thanks for the inspiration!

  3. That's so true.
    Sometimes the weight of things just is too heavy though.
    I'll try this out.
