I have had some “life realization” moments lately. These include:
- A co-worker passed away after a massive heart attack on Easter Sunday.
- Realizing I am not 18 anymore.
- A good life is about understanding what you can be the best at.
- Take every moment in as a blessing, because time doesn’t have reverse.
Not to start with a negative tone about someone dying, but this reality, gives us a moment to realize additional, valuable information about ourselves and our lives. Are we living our life the “Way We Want” or, are we just living, taking in food and air? Who’s life is it anyway? The economy doesn’t need to direct our life! We direct our Life. Our financial situation doesn’t direct our happiness. We direct our happiness. Comments from others don’t direct our lives. We choose our direction in life.
Is your life in order or chaos? A harsh reality is that I think mine is more of the second. Not ”a total lack of organization or order” as the definition states, but some items need “tuning”. I WILL be correcting this! This is my life and I want it to be the best for my family and I. After hearing of my co-worker passing, and reading the kind words others have said about him, I thought to myself, what will people say about me? What will people say about you? As everday passes I realize that I am not “invincable” like I thought I was when I was younger.
I also realized that we need to take every moment as a blessing, because time doesn’t have reverse. Once a moment is gone, it is just that, gone. We cannot change what happened, we can change how we will react and we can learn from the previous moment. But the moment doesn’t come back..
I recently saw the movie “Yes Man” with Jim Carey and it gives an interesting perspective of life. We need to take hold of every opportunity we have because you never know what it will do for your life. Everything in our day is an opportunity to learn, grow, make someone smile and realize the sun is out lighting up all the possibilities in our day. As we realize opportunities for ourselves, we help others to see opportunities and that is where the real value lies, helping others.
I escalate Knowledge, convey Opportunity Awareness and Encouragement that empowers others to rise to any challenge.
