Sometimes, I feel like I’ve come into a movie late, and I’m not sure if I’ve missed the vital clue from the first scene. Or maybe the ending’s already been made clear, and I’m supposed to be watching the story leading up to a conclusion I should already know about. I keep waiting for the plot to twist. Other times, I wonder whether there’s a story there at all, like the film maker has written a story expecting the audience to understand the history leading up to this moment in time, like it’s all supposed to make sense, and I’m the only one who hasn’t been filled in. I look around to see the reaction from the people sitting in the dark around me…and I’m the only one there.
Keep going UP!
If you’re not going up, then it’s either your staying still or going down.
And if you’re staying still or gowing down, then there’s no point in doing what you do.
Cause you always have to keep going up, so if you’re not then it’s time to stop and pivot!
Moral of the story: Keep going UP!
When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, ‘I used everything you gave me’.

Via MineDon’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive
Human nature
I just wanna be crazy, I wanna explore, I wanna make mistakes because that’s normal. We make mistakes, we learn from them. That’s how we live. I don’t mind making mistakes, and I don’t mind looking back and saying: God, I should have reacted differently, because I know that this is how it should be. But what I fear the most, is that day I look back at my life and realize I haven’t really lived.
Why should we always be responsible, why can’t we just take some time and be just irresponsible and carefree, why do we always have to take life so seriously? We never get out from it alive anyway.
I believe that God created us in all this beauty, he gave us all a gift called: hobbies. He created music, nature, art. He wanted us to be HAPPY. That’s why God created us, He wanted us to be happy, praising Him for all the glory and blessings He gave us here on Earth. Surprisingly, we don’t! We don’t enjoy the beauty or the nature, we pollute it and fill it with garbage, we kill each other and we destroy our home, we ignore our hobbies and then we wonder why we’re not happy. We ruin our world and then we go back to God complaining about life getting rough, we blame Him for all the evil we’ve done. We delude ourselves, and then we come back wondering why life is such a mess. Human nature is a mystery.
The two hardest tests on the spiritual road are the patience to wait for the right moment and the courage not to be disappointed with what we encounter.

…I want to continue being crazy, living my life the way I dream it, not the way other people want it to be.
