The term life is described as such; the capacity for growth, reproduction, functional activity, and continual change preceding death. There are many interpretations to such a word but allow let me share my own… life is but perspective. The nutrients you feed your mind will form the foundation to which you live, through visualization and focus of where you want to be and how you want to live; you truly can attain anything in this world. Your self-made image of reality may either be your downfall or your upbringing… all dependent on how you choose to perceive your days; both good and bad. Just as we find beauty amongst the storms of life as mother nature cleanses the earth of waste, it is just as relevant for us to find beauty amongst all turmoil we face in the years ahead. We would not be given a life we cannot endure and it is for this reason that instead of wallowing in self-pity at the idea of “a bad day” we should smile as we come to the understanding that all hardships are there to strengthen us, until we may step into greatness on our own terms. Create a life worth living and rejoice in happiness as your hard work pays off, this life is not easy and may not always be seen as forgiving but one thing set in stone is the fact that true ownership of one’s own capabilities is the starting point for all greatness. If you have an idea and feel as if you are capable of pursuing it, then regardless of those who would rather see you fall; rise up as you step out of the rat race of life. Find beauty within the world and your soul will follow, a positive mentality attracts positive events… but a mind bent on sorrow and negativity will never be known to prosper amongst the ranks of the elites.
