Life Is Sweet; How Are You Living It.
Life is not always fair but the amount of fairness you get how do you use it? To you make use of it or you let it slip away? When an opportunity comes your way or comes back again to you how to you view it?
If I had a time machine I would like to go back in time and correct my wrongs and mistakes, I would grap every opportunity that comes my way and never let it slip ever again. If you had a time machine what will you do with it?
This life is like a quicksand, it will swallow you whole, what provisions have you made for your survival? And how well to do you take care of those provisions you've made for yourself?
They said life is a "jungle and only the fittest survive" and i say even they ones that show weakness and are slow can survive, take for example the tortoise is a slow animal but a wise and distinctive survival of the jungle. Why, because it has the tool for survival, what kind of tool do we have to help us survive this world jungle and its problems ?
1. The Gift Of Free Will.
This Gift was given to us by our creator, the gift of Free will, we have choices to make in life we are not created like robots that just obey commands and do what they are told to do. But we humans have the gift of free will, to do whatever we want to do in life, that choice is ours to make.
As we said life is a jungle so the choices you make determine your survival in this jungle, if you choose to do wrong the consequences for that choice you made awaits you, and when you choose to do good, the outcome too awaits you .
Our free will is one of the greatest and the most powerful tool given to us by God for our survival. How are you then using your gift of fre will? Do you even know you have such a gift or do you allow others to make your decisions or choose for you? Do you feel pressure sometimes to make decisions or make a choice on something you know is not right? How then do you exercise your gift of free will?
2. Freedom.
This might look the same with the first one but this is a bit different, Freedom!! You can whatever you want to be, whoever you want to be, you are not a slave to anyone but to God alone, cause God Owns you.
Freedom makes you free, Freedom is care free.
So many people are slaves to people, they try explain to everyone why they live their lives they way the live it, if you are in a situation where you always explain yourself to people about your choices then you are a slave. But one that is free doesn't explain himself or herself but people see and decide for themselves what your life is without an explanation.
Life is sweet,are you living to please others or are you making your choices and being as free as the breeze that blows the ocean water to shore. So be as free as the wind and never underestimate your strength or weaknesses because the tortoise is one of the slowest animals in the jungle but yet he doesn't consider himself weak because he is a survival and it will continue surviving because it has provisions available and he makes use of those provisions.
