My life in 10 years ?!?!?

Hey, have you ever stopped to imagine how your life is gonna be like in 10 years?

I've done that in 2005 and I imagined many things but nothing compared to what happened to me during these years. To understand better what I am talking about, let's imagine the following...

-----------------------------------------------------

You have a boat and you also have a dream.... to sail around the world just to find your way in a strange land called life. However, things change and you have to sell your boat before you even start your journey. It's hard but you have no choice. Afterwards, you keep imagining how things are gonna work without your boat especially because you had put all your eggs on this basket! Things could be worse if you didn't have a loyal person by your side to help you build a new dream... One day, you wake up and see that you are alone and have to walk in this condition because that loyal person has gone away without goodbyes. Yeah, things got worse... It's hard but you have no choice besides going ahead.  Happenings like this one are great happenings because they teach us that....

...now I am little bit older and wise enough to focus on my new goals. I like simply imagining more 10 years with the lover I come across trying to find that old boat I had to sold at my youth. Nowadays, I know my boat is where I am.   And yours?

:)

Where your heart takes you

It is not complicated to find people talking and doing things just to please others. However, finding some that just try to please themselves it is rare. Why? I simply don't know. Maybe sociologists and psychologists can say something about the matter.  One day we will kick the bucket and what is really going to matter is simply what we have done to make somebody else happier and what we have learned from life. 

Where can your heart take you? Are you prepared?

Think about it!

The secret of life is...

To succeed, you need to find something to hold on to, something to motivate you, something to inspire you.

Tony Dorsett

Life conditions!

Why things happened in that way?!?

It's time to think about the happenings and grow with them!  ...with no complains or sadness.

Sunrise

When sun rises, it means that a new opportunity is shining to us.
A  opportunity to take care of those we love, to help a stranger, to consider learning something new.
The problem is that most of the times we do not notice all these opportunties.

Frustrations of life...

I think we have much more to learn with nature than the opposit. The nature around us(if we are not in cities, of course) shows and proves each new moment that life can emerge even at inhospitable places. What could we say about our lives?  That sometimes it is faced as an inhospitable place where everything seems to work against us.

When things don't flow as we expect, we get sad. When people don't give us the hand we expect we probably get sad. When time passes, we get sad.      ...and in this sadness background, most of the time we get frustrated.   However, the background change when we stop a little to think about all the problems we are passing through.   The surprising end can reveal that many of our frustrations stuck in events that we had to act but we waited for others instead. Fortunately, our life doesn't depende on the other choices...  But it is something we spend long periods of life to realize.  It is not all of a sudden.

This week I had the opportunity to read a wonderful thought by Nietzsche that changed completely my mind towards the frustrations of life. Let's take a look at it: 

Nobody can build the bridge for you to walk across the river of life, no one but you yourself alone. There are, to be sure, countless paths and bridges and demi-gods which would carry you across this river; but only at the cost of yourself; you would pawn yourself and lose. There is in the world only one way, on which nobody can go, except you: where does it lead? Do not ask, go along with it.

Now draw your own conclusions about life.

I have drawn some...

Sometimes we expect more from the others than from ourselves. But nobody can live our life or, in other words, build the bridge we need to walk across the river of life... like said the philosopher. So how we can put on other hands our happiness... We cannot do it, because it is not possible, even we sometimes think it is.

Think about it!

Where is the main problem?

"Remember that the world was not created only to you." André Luiz

The quote above made me think about life...  the wars and about so many problems people around the world are facing just now when I am writing this post.    I arrived at a conclusion that if our life is not good, maybe the problem can be in ourselves - the way I look to life is the main problem.

If I get to look to other lifes around me I can discover that my life is perfect. Simple, but perfect.

If things are not flowing as I expect, maybe I should only thank the moment.
I have been learning that I'm in trouble when I got a simple problem and turned it into a big one to discover at the end that it never existed.

Life can be simple and perfect when we start thinking about others and about the way we can help only for the pleasure of being helpful...
