It is not often we are given the chance to wipe our slates clean, or right a wrong or even admit what you really feel. You hear people talking about what they will do for a new resolution but seldom ever achieve even the first on their list. You see people make lists everyday but hardly even glance at. So much time and effort is put in to the wrong thing. You see the human has become a master at one thing. That is lying to oneself. Often we get the urge that you have been slacking off thus you go and sit down and make a list of all the things you ought to do. You then feel a sense of achieving something and so after ticking off just one or two things on your list all is right in the world again. We keep building this false sense of achievement and in the end when you sit and look back on your day, your week, year or even your entire life you feel this sense of disappointment and failure but this is brief as this feeling is temporarily forgotten by making another resolution
As the years go by you begin to realize that life did not turn out as you envisioned what happened to all those hopes and dreams? The promise to yourself, that you would achieve all your goals. Be fulfilled mentally, physically and emotionally. It is true what they say you cannot set out to achieve everything that you set out to do but that’s beside the point. What happened to being genuine being true to yourself lie to another but why continue lying to you? Could it be because we are afraid of what we might find out about ourselves? But this I must ask how can we live with ourselves when we keep avoiding ourselves. How often have you ever sat down alone and really asked yourself what is going on with you? Oh yes we know the stuff like how those jeans would look on you or what that shade of blush does for you. But do you really know what goes inside of you and I’m not talking about the latest diet you are on. I’m talking about an almost spiritual like connection with yourself. This is not an easy feat as the human is often afraid of finding out the truth. Thus we continue lying to ourselves building castles in the air and mean while the pharmaceutical company keeps getting paid for all those happy pills they are supplying you with.
So come on start over with yourself it is never too late to get know someone especially yourself. I know what I speak of is a hard thing to do but it could be interesting you might be surprised at the courage in you that lurks within and just needs a little goading to come out. So come on look in that mirror and start off with a just hi, it just maybe the little push you need to having a well balanced life.
