Think About It

As I go through the motions of life on my own journey I daily reflect on the now and where it’s taking me for the then. Day by day goes by and it feels sometimes like the twilight zone without the big picture of what we are doing today really matters for tomorrow. This is the question for today then. Think about what you’re doing in this day because this day truly matters for your future. Think about it vs. just letting day after day go by and nothing is accomplished.

I sit and ponder about the things we take for granted on a daily basis. Hot water, a shower, being able to bathe, having a stove to warm water up if you don’t have hot water, a fridge to keep things cool, drinkable water to drink, a place to lay your head and stay warm. Seriously….. If you think about it, we take so much for granted that we don’t even realize just how easy and good we have it and yet to do nothing with that is a sad plight. Yes, I am saying be thankful and take full advantage of the simple pleasures we have to propel you on your way to a better future. I have a friend in the Philippines who doesn’t have all the amenities that we have in this culture. He is the happiest man in the world and doesn’t want to come back to a walking dead life because he has found life. I urge you to see the things around you, be aware, be thankful and be inspired. Journey on people.
