I Feel You...

Sometimes, if you think about it, life is kind of like reading a book. Days, weeks, even years can just repeat themselves... until you turn the page.

Think about that for just a moment. 

I know I’ve said before that we are all only ever one decision away from a completely different life. We just got to have the courage to understand that we can do it. Every single decision we make in life changes our future. 

It may sound a bit nonsensical, but even just deciding what we are going to eat for dinner can change our lives. Perhaps we decide to have something, but when we check we don’t have the ingredients. Unperturbed, and because it’s what we want, we venture out to the supermarket, or local store to get exactly what we want, because knowing that you want it, makes it all the more desirable. We have set ourselves the goal of obtaining what we want. We have sought to satisfy the need we felt inside.

So now that we have got what we wanted, we may reflect on what we had to do or overcome to reach our goal. It’s not always going to be easy. It could be, but chances are it will take a bit of work. We may face very real obstacles or difficulties along the way, but you know what we keep going. Sometimes when we don’t pursue it fully, then it’s clear that it’s just not meant to be. My dear old Mum often says “If it’s meant for you, it won’t pass you by”. Growing up we used to think that was just one of her many random sayings, but now as an adult I kind of get it. I do believe there is a right time for everything. 

There’s a right time for appreciating that you should be able to feel you. You should be in tune to what you need, not just what you want, but what you need too. Wants can be slight or superficial - kind of like wanting a takeaway, instead of what’s in the fridge. It is just a basic urge that starts the wheels in motion. That’s when we should really feel like we are going to get what we set out for. It’s all about being aware and listening to ourselves, because above all else, we alone are more capable of doing or changing anything. 

So, it doesn’t matter if it’s takeaway pizza, or a life’s ambition; it’s all about listening to ourselves and feeling that urge to get it. 

I feel you,

Within my mind...
