Back to Blogging...

Ok... I guess as many people realized, a blog is set up to help get what is on your mind out in the open and organized... I haven't really been doing that lately... I have been on here posting about music and playing up my book... I have been neglecting the entire reason I needed a blog... so back to blogging...

Have you ever had the feeling that your life has been slipping out of your grasp? Like you are slowly starting to slip away from yourself and spin wildly out of control? It always tends to happen when you are flying at your highest point, almost like it's God's way of keeping you grounded saying "you are no angel, you don't deserve to be up here yet..."

Why does it happen like this? why is it that we only lose control when everything is going good? Is it because we let our guards down? Do we just assume that just because things have been going our way for this short period of time that we are now invincible? My God aren't we the ignorant ones?

Why on Earth would we be invincible? Why would we even be given the free will to believe that we are? Why can't we just live with reasonable goals and expectations of life and not get all hot and bothered every time fate decides to swing in our favor? Because as humans we desire to have things our way. As people in our culture, we all feel like we are entitled to everything that we want. And every time that things start to go our way, we forget the struggle, the heartbreak, the hardships, the fighting... all that it took to get the first scrap of what we deserved...

That first scrap is the only part that is appreciated. The rest is all assumed to be a given. "The world is mine because I got something that I wanted." WRONG! We need to appreciate things that happen to us, good or bad, for what they are. They are rewards or challenges. We must never stop fighting to get what we want, yet we must cherish what we receive as a result of our struggle.
