When Life Overwhelms
Credits to the Owner of the Photo |
When I was young, I
want to grow up fast, look for a job, do the things I like and live my life according
to my plan. Then back to reality, I am now a grown up. I am working to pay my
bills, mortgages, buy my needs and wants. Suddenly, it struck me. I want to go
back in being a child! Yep, this is what I realize wanting to grow up is one of
my misunderstood ideas. Yeah, when one become an adult, one has to face fears,
live in this fast paced world with so much possibility into, be wary of all the
decisions because it will be turning point of one’s life. I did not see that coming when I dream of
becoming an adult.
My point is, let us
not become a future minded person. Thinking too much of what we will become and
forgetting that the result of the present is our future. Sounds vague, right? I
am 23 turning 24. Life has been a rocky road experience. But I am thankful that
I live my present somewhat correctly because if I did not, it would be a worst
case scenario. Why? It is because if I did not study and do the things I like
when I was younger, I will not become the person that I am. Then it will add
more problems to me this present year. I don’t know what I am talking about but
I want to point out when everything in your life is not going smoothly, you
cannot point your fingers to other people but yourself. No one has to be blame
but you; you are the master of the ship. Take the credit for the ups and downs.
And as the master of the ship you cannot let it sink. The only way not to let
it sink is to acknowledge the problem and give solutions to it.
Solutions may not
come in handy, there is a remarkable time to be used in order for it to find
out and execute. One has to have the courage to execute. Execution is the most
difficult part. The inner conflict will arise but once done. You are new
creation again. Stronger and better, but then past problems will go back when
you thought you already get over it. Life is a cycle and there is no such thing
as mastery for this subject but a lifelong learning process. Remember, when
life overwhelms go through your own book what did you do to overcome the
problem, develop another strategy and then Plan B or Plan C what is important
is do not ever give up. To live a better life is a decision.
