“WHO ARE YOU”
Who are you as a person? Are you a product of your immediate surroundings or your life experiences? Do you make decisions by only viewing the world through your eyes? Ask Yourself? What defines you? Do you define yourself by the way you act? Do you define yourself by who you know, or who you associate yourself with? Do you let your boss, co workers or your friends define who you are? Do you define yourself by how you look, how great your body is, how wealthy you are, or by how many people validate, approve, or disapprove you? How often have you subscribed to this , or agreed with a distorted perception because your immediate surroundings said it was true regardless if you knew if it was or wasn’t? All of us have experienced this, but Hear me out, it seems different to all of us based on the circumstance that we’re presently in. Can you see what I’m Saying? What about your life? What about your views & True Beliefs on life? What about your work ethic, your faith, forgiveness or gratitude or your Life ethics? What about your family, friends, parents, siblings, or children? Are you thinking what I’m thinking yet?
Who is there with you or for you during the good times or Bad? Who laughs with you or laughs at you? Who cries with you & who will cry for you when you won’t stop and ask for pity or comfort for yourself or your stubbornness, ignorance or pride gets in the way? Think about the people who liked you conditionally and the same ones you liked back, with the same conditions? How often do you smile at someone just because? How do you treat the people you know and the people you don’t know? How often have you given someone homeless a coin, a dollar or some kind of help? How often have you given a dollar to a friend or a stranger because they wanted it or needed it? Think about who you Loved unconditionally and who Loved you unconditionally back!
What is beautiful to you?
Do you rejoice and embrace your true individual uniqueness, and I mean what’s truly unique inwardly and not outwardly? Are you making a difference in your life daily to define who and what you truly are?
Are you thankful for the places you’ve been, and life lessons you’ve learned good & bad so far? Are you thankful for the friends and opportunities and the people and things that have come in & out of your life, Or do you just complain about the things you don’t have and forget to take notice of all of the miraculous blessings you’ve received just by having the gift of life each day to receive and/or enjoy the things you do have? Do you smile at the world just because you have the opportunity to live in it today?
Goals, failures, struggles, success, desires, dreams, nightmares, glory accomplishments, faith, change and Love define who you are,. How have you lived?How & who have you loved, and most importantly where does self play into all of this? Reality has always dictated that you’ve been there to experience all of these defining moments, remember?
Believe what you wanna believe, visualize what you wanna visualize and remember,
If something was hard, be glad it wasn’t harder, if something was bad, be glad it wasn’t worse, and if something is great, just think how much more greater it can be? if you continually open your mind, heart, body and soul to focus, adjust and accept that you can truly make a difference in your life, everyone else’s life and in the World, by starting with your life, and you’ll finish with a changed outcome!
If you strive to continually make yourself better, everything around you, within you, and about you will be better! Devour negativity as the nourishment to feed you mind body and soul to accomplish your dreams and have faith in the grace of life that you’ve been given.This will truly define who and what you are as a human being? Let the winds of positivity, the wheels of mental perpetual motion and your hard work coupled with Gods Grace lift you off to fly and soar from your unwavering concentration, focus, and belief in your dreams and be thankful for all the combined efforts that you’ve merged together. Don’t confuse yourself & make the wrong decisions by continually viewing the world through your eyes, think about everything! Now ask yourself again? What are you defined by?
Your life is in yours and Gods hands, and at times we may not realize or understand the world and the universe we live in, But when you do realize and understand, What will you choose?
WHO ARE YOU?
