There are certain times in our lives where we just sit back and we wonder," where exactly is my life going, and what is going to be the outcome of this current path I am going?" times like these can at times make it seem like we are on a rollercoaster that not only is going up and down but around in circles. the ride is at times long and drawn out and can seem like it is never-ending. but the truth is we just have to hop on and take the ride and the outcomes that come with it. whether it be a new job, or a new place that isn’t something we are use to, we just need to believe that these are just small stepping stones to a much larger rock or foundation that we will eventually reach. like a floating leaf in the sea that doesn’t know where it is going to end up or a feather blowing in the wind, falling waiting for the next gust to pick it back up again. we, as we are, are but simple small pieces to a much bigger and elaborate puzzle slowly being put together by the maker himself in heaven. a lifelong dream or a goal can be the next piece in your life’s puzzle or can be the piece after that, we just need to take them as they come. I know firsthand that life can be very demanding and at times can seem like
there is nothing that can make it better or even give it a glimmer of hope, but it’s that shining light at the end of the tunnel that we more often than not hold on to. Knowing everything in life is never going to happen for anyone, so why waste time focusing on something that is out of our reach. we need to be thankful for each new day that we have on this earth and realize that out part is but a glimpse into a much larger equation that is always being worked on. we need to wake up in the morning, look at ourselves in the mirror and simply say that, “today I am going to do everything I can to make this day worth living, today I am going to do whatever is necessary to make God proud to be my father and to have created me. He knows all, sees all, and is all, so do not worry about the future, and do not worry about what ifs. because by doing so
you are just taking away time from yourself that you will never get back. Learn to take it as it comes, deal with the outcomes, and know that from everything
we experience a lesson can be learned. Whether you make a mistake, achieve a goal, or lose something dear to you, it is never truly the end of the world.
we are always so quick to assume that things won’t get better and that our lives are ruined if something does not go the way that we want it to, but take that
negativity and turn it into something positive. Make someone smile, make someone laugh, or let someone in on the good things in your life. You will never
know that effects that you have on people but I promise you this each one of us have had something in our lives that have made in impact on someone somehow.
Know that our destiny lies ahead and our path is laid out in front of us. Don’t hide behind fear, or fear of the unkown. take off your mask, and shed yourselves of the shades in front of your eyes and look at the world through new eyes. In doing so you can feel re born and feel the joy in the little things. Like a Childs smile, an elderly persons laugh, or the love of a new because the truth is those are the things that truly matter. Not the artificial things like money, clothes, or wants, but
the special little things that make us who we are. each one of us has something to give the world, and that’s our part. Learn from one another, listen to one another,
and become something bigger. Do not be afraid to cry, to laugh, or to follow your heart, because I promise you it will never lead you astray if you truly believe in
it and believe in yourselves. I may not know everyone who reads this on a personal level but we are all tied together by love, faith, and hope. give love, have faith in the future, and have hope that each new day will bring something better and new than the day before. Learn to take the good with the bad and know that you can do anything that you set your mind to and that your life is the most amazing thing in the world. We are all miracles of this world that we live in, and we are all responsible for showing one another just how great life actually is. Know that no one is ever truly lost and that there will always be someone for everyone that will listen. Ask yourself what you can do and do it, be proud of who you are and know that You are strong, you are capable, and you have everything it takes to be that person for someone else. If you ever feel like you can’t do it read this again and again and know that no matter what you will be ok because the sun will always rise tomorrow and that God is always there looking down on you even in your darkest hour. He loves us all and pours his love out through us in the most amazing ways. Out of this writing I am sharing his will and goodness, and hopefully touching someone somewhere. If this only affects one person than I have done something good in his name. Don’t be afraid of something just because it seems impossible. Just believe and know that anything is achievable. I love each and every one of you and I am proud to share the time I have on this earth with each and every one of you. I have made mistakes and done my share of bad things, but it’s what I have learned from those events which have molded me into who I am today. Love one another with your whole heart and dare to dream because it’s our dreams that give us hope, it is God who gives us faith, it is our faith that gives us strength, and it is our strengths which pushes us towards the future. Help someone in need, take the time to share your story and know that we are all in this together.......... This is just the beginning of something great that lies ahead for each one of us...... read this, put your thoughts into this, place your feelings, thoughts and ideas within these words and you will be amazed on how much you will realize....... Love is the strongest of anything but in order to truly love something you have to love yourself first....... sometimes it can be very difficult but know God loves you, I love you, and you will never be alone........... God bless you all and may his blessings and hand make an impact on your life and you future.....
Sincerely,
Silent thoughts
