Precious YOU

All credit goes to her. Here she goes courtesy of Whats Up symbolically of what she has chosen as our reflections for today.

               

Perhaps I should be telling a story here today. About some girl or boy, or man, or woman, or an animal…but I won’t- At least not today. Not that I don’t have a story to inspire my writing but because today I want us to have a talk.

Welcome to this house (blog) I may not have a lot to offer but I have some. My time and thought will do. Meanwhile; I know you are pondering what kind of talk this is. Please don’t be in a hurry today. Wait and Relax, I mean RELAX!!Sit back. Be patient with me. I promise I won’t take much of your precious time.

Today’s reflections are on taking life easy and simple yet being serious, ambitious and visionary. Take a moment out of the craziness of life. For a moment take a deep Breath, relax and stop! Life is that we all want to touch the finish line soonest possible (It’s all human anyway) but wait; there is only one person in your life. And that is only YOU. So whether you take a twenty minute break or not, no one will say they touched your finish line first when you were on the fifteenth minute of your rest.

You are too much valuable and precious to be lost in the daily routines of life. You have one life to live and make most of it. Life is only sweet when you do exactly what you should and leave what cannot be done today for tomorrow. Never think that we are in a race in life to compete. We are not. Instead each of us should do exactly what they purpose in their hearts and only one time. We cannot conquer the whole world so as to chase it all the way. Our purpose for living out in our generation is simply to run our race, finish it and receive the victor’s crown. Wonder why we should then behave as if all that mattered in this life was rules and law of must do this or else… This is not the beauty of life.

Always be your real self every time. Do not pretend you are something else you are. Do not cling on just one thing you will have no possibility of getting if it does not matter too much in your life. Blow it away. Do not shy away from blowing away what’s not yours. If it’s yours it will come back to you. Relinquish your positions in your jobs when you have other offers. Take a pay cut and start your own company and build it from scratch.

When you are not patient and ready to experience joy and tranquility in going through life contented yet ambitious, we lose the taste and true meaning of a happy life. You don’t have to take everything too serious that should not. Strike the balance of must do’s and should do’s.

Play in the rain, laugh in the darkness, shout in the silence, break all the codes, do all the wrong things for only that one right reason. Go out for a moon light walk at night, take a holiday to a far off shore and don’t forget to give a story/joke during a presentation with your bosses/clients. Take a road drive and try a new nice recipe. Give yourself a five minute break while your boss watches, try walking on your four limbs instead of two (you don’t have to be drunk to crawl) take your enemy out for a drink. Just breath, let life flow do it more often, and then thank me later!

This is because you are precious. Your life is the most precious thing you have to change the world. You have to be sober in pursuing your dreams. This is only if you have peace of mind and health. Do not be stressed because you are over stretched in trying to reach for what does not matter in life. The gifted you must not go through life the gloomy way. While you want be excellent, do it with joy. Do not blame people for your temporal failures. Do not take failures too serious that you fail to see future opportunity. Take care till next time you visit here.
