This year (2017) is moving quite fast and I can hardly keep up with it so can you?
I hope that each one of us are enjoying the journey of life and not just going through the motions as some of us occasionally do! We are living in the ‘fullness of time’, which are clearly felt in the field of sports, medicine, entertainment, religion and technology. There are many challenges along this journey albeit often times we fail to see the sunrise in the midst of the darkest abyss. Sadly, many of us have become our worst critics and naysayers; allowing our souls to be held captive by FEAR. This word when defined implies False Evidence Appearing Real (FEAR). I often feel paralyzed by this terrible enemy that I don’t end accomplishing my goals, aspirations, calling and dreams in this life.
Well, it is time for us to shake off the ropes by which we have been bound and to free ourselves from this predicament. Please look in the mirror and tell yourself that today you will no longer live in fear. Choose to live with a brightness of hope and start to do those activities and plans that you have been putting on hold for a very, very long time. If you wanted to leave your workplace and start your own business then by all means works towards this, if you wanted to go back to school and don’t feel intelligent enough then why not? If you have been meaning to tell a secret admirer that you like them then now is the perfect time and if you want to cut the kilos and get back in shape because you don’t like what your body size and shape has morphed into then start that exercise routine and healthy lifestyle. Let us not allow fear to steal away our happiness, opportunities and joy. We need to strive to do our level best and after having done all even if we end up failing at least it will not be attributed to fear.
Don’t fear getting married because of harsh economic times because these difficult times will be forever be our lot. If things are not working out in a particular relationship then find an amicable solution; which might be ending it altogether however hard this maybe… Don’t tell yourself that you have to force it to work when you have done so for many years without any success. Closed doors always reopen, lost coins always resurface, beautiful girls and handsome boys will always roam this earth, seasons will come ago, night will turn to day, countries will go to the polls and we must be born, live, marry, leave behind our generation and eventually die! Such is life my dear friends but please don’t allow fear to leave you caged, like an eagle you ought to fly Up Where You Belong!
