How to travel through life …

March 6, 2007 · Leave a Comment

Huge life change today … or change of view point about life.

It was one of those things that happens that makes you look back at your entire life and look at it from an entirely different angle.

There are certain ways that you can go through life.

You can run through it, paying attention to only those things that bring you pleasure. Ignoring or pushing out of your way anything that could or would attempt to get in your way.

You can do the exact opposite … putting all your attention on what is in your way and push like hell. I would liken it to trying to push a semi-truck, with a dead battery up a hill hoping to get to the other side so that you can pop the clutch and get the engine started.

Or you can run through life … confronting the things that are trying to get in your way, look at them for what they are barriers and move them so that they will never again be in your path.

So as I said at the beginning of this post today I had a huge change of viewpoint about life. I found a barrier that I did not believe existed and after I spotted that barrier I found a few other smaller barriers that I had put on my path.

It is funny, in retrospect, how we try to make things interesting for ourselves … by putting a lot of emphasis on those barriers.

My advice … Follow that old saying “Keep hitching your wagon to a star!” That way I think the bumps in the road become a little more obvious.
