As I was driving at lunch to the bank, I was thinking about life and the movies. In the movies it always has some kind of happy ending, the villain is always defeated, the family gets there money, the ghost is found, but in life does it always play the same as the movies?
We come, we live, we die, but what happens in between is completely up to the individual living that life. Like me for example, I was born some years ago and I have lived a life, with some ups, some downs and some just in between, but who defines how my life goes? Is it everyone around me? Well for the longest time that is what I thought. It was everyone's fault if I was having a bad day, or I would blame it on the weather (which I can't control), but the things we do define us. So by me blaming everyone else for my problems, I was not being the man I needed to be. I needed to stand up and take responsibility for my own actions, my thoughts, my fears and then and only then can I see life for what it has for me.
It is time that we stop blaming our parents for our problems, stop looking at work for why we are struggling and see what life has for you. The more you coast, the more life will seem to pass you by. It is time that I start making decisions about my life, time to stand, time to be the man that I have been called to be.
Is it time for you to stand? No more coasting, stand and be counted.
