Sometimes it takes the right combination of people to walk in and out of your life to help you realize the important things. I have my own personal treasure box with a few names in there that I can say I call my angels. But, I've also been there with the people who don't bring out the true you, the best you. And that's okay too.
But, never forget you are an individual. God didn't make two of you for a reason; twins are even different.One thing I think I have let myself down with, is allowing others to take the reigns. That's never okay. You drive your car. Make your own decisions. But, most importantly, never let anyone tell you something about yourself you don't believe in. Stand up for yourself. Use the gifts you've been given and don't allow people to tell you otherwise. Happiness is doing what you love. But, hey, life is all about figuring out the right amount of sugar and spice. It's been quite a long journey all ready and I'm only 21. But, I can say that finding myself has been the hardest for the last three years and I think I'm finally closing that gap. I think I can finally start to say it's fulfilling. Looking back, I wouldn't change a thing. I wouldn't change the arguments, tears, sweats, happiness, rejoices and triumphs. Every last bit has been worth it.
This special year 2012 has a lot of us thinking. And I mean real thinking. Long and deeply about what it IS we really are. What we are really here for. The cosmos always have something in store for us, but we never really know the motive. Or do we? Or is it that we don't really need to know? What is knowing anyway? These are all questions I've encountered myself this year. The big one is WHO am I? Well, I've been aiming to answer this my whole life. Still haven't quite captured it. And I'm sure you haven't either. But, the real beauty is being able to sit in that discomfort and understand that it will come, with time and wisdom. With all the right and wrong people and experiences we encounter. I don't really know who reads this, or if I'm the only one that reads this, but either is perfectly fine with me. :D
Today, I had this moment of real, raw feeling. A true feeling of interconnectedness. We are all on the same planet. We are all on the same, yet different life paths. I feel that we really need to get to know this idea because we are still so divided. So wrapped up in our own little worlds, we don't stop enough to see the bigger picture. Ask yourself exactly what that is, or what that means. Acknowledge the coincidences. They won't just be "coincidences" anymore. A great book to read about coincidences is "The Celestine Prophecy" by James Redfield. Life changer. Lets work together on helping one another out. Make it a point to make someone smile. Everyday. Do something for someone else. A lot of times you'll find yourself, your true being in the little moments in life.
Love. This illogical thing. I can't talk about it enough. Forget about the small stuff; don't sweat it. We don't tell one another we love eachother enough. Tell someone. And mean it. Use your intuition to guide you. We spend too much time listening to other people. Listen to you. You have your answers. It is YOUR life of course. If you feel inclined to go somewhere, see someone..GO. do. IT.
Don't you think there's a divine reason your instincts are telling you that?
