Week 9: Statements, truths and life changes.

Where to start?

Even though it feels like the weeks fly by extremely fast, the days are like years. I am amazed at how much can happen in one day. Today alone has had a weeks worth of experiences. It sure makes it easy to come up with things to blog about.

In a recent discussion with my mother, I came to realize that she is always right. I rarely admit it, but she and I both know it. I established some goals and figured out where I wanted to be with my life. Which leads me to my first topic: What's really important. I've been so caught up on the little things. I know what I want in the end. Now its time to take the steps to get there. Here is a truth, improvements are only made by constant striving and commitment. But only when you are ready. We all need time to decide what we want in life. I'm not saying that I'm some kind of guru and that I've got it all figured out. But I'm getting there.

I feel that randomness is also one of life's necessities. It's that bit of spontaneity that makes life bearable. It helps us get out of that rut we have the tendency to get stuck in. Its also what helps to create the uniqueness found in each one of us; what sets us apart from the rest of the world. I'm not trying to bash on routines. Those too, are necessary. All I ask is that we try not to get stuck. Don't let yourself turn into a drone. If you feel as if you are stuck in a rut, get out. Do something new. See something new. Try a new food. Take some photos. Live on the edge for a moment.

I've also been missing my mission a lot lately. Sure it was stressful at times, filled with disappointment, and tiring, but it also was soo rewarding. You only worried about one thing: what's most important. The distractions weren't there. I miss that.

Well folks, that's all for now.

Theories are easy to come by, but truth is hard to find.
