Embracing the unforeseen ...so what's the common things that everyone has in life? to list a few:
1) we all age
2) time is something none of us can control
3) we are all limited to circumstances
4) change is the only constant factor in any one person on this earth.
change. even in one second, or a fraction of a second, we are changing. the strands on our hair are growing although we can't see it. the same goes for our maturity, though in some it takes longer. every moment that we're living, we are constantly changing. it never stops, it never ends. that's how life is, how it's meant to be. thus, what is this adaptability to changes that people all talk about? i guess it's all in the mind. we are adapting to changes every minute, every second. it's just the extent of the changes to the naked eyes that makes all the difference in our minds, how we perceive things and adapt to it, how we prepare or tell ourselves that the change is not within our control, so on and so forth.
i don't know what 2009 holds for me, neither do i have the slightest clues what kind of drastic changes ( if there should even be any this year ) in my life. this future that all of us have, we can't see it, but that doesn't mean we should shy away or even run away from it. we should embrace what we can't see clearly. like how we can embrace God, and all the other things we can't see, the future is something we need not be afraid of. cos all our future leads to the same ending, it's just the matter of time. but this is not something to be pessimistic about. not something to be afraid or be gloomy about. it's just a cycle of how life is.
people live and people die. what matters is what we do with the time God has given to us on this mortal earth where things appear and disappear. where things are imperfect yet perfect, depending on the person and the situation, and the mood perhaps. where promises are made and yet are made to be broken. where hearts break and hearts heal. it's just life. whether we live a fulfilling life or an empty life. whether we live our lives with dreams, hopes and love; or we live letting our environment manipulate us.
one thing in for sure, dreams are precious in life. every moment in my life, i think about my dreams, walk to my dreams, and try to find ways to reach my dreams. even if my dreams get blurry at times, at least i'll do my best not to give up. as long as i keep moving, i'm sure to see my dream ever so clearly. with my sight so clear it provides perfect clarity even. but at times, there must be rest. if not i'll be worn and tired, weary and may need help to continue on my journey. life is made of dreams, love and passion. never give up on them even if it's difficult in reality, so that at least, you'll have no regrets. happiness will be much more easily felt.
well, school's starting this monday. the new year holds many things i cannot see or grasp. but i'll just continue to walk forward with faith in God and strength to climb every mountain that comes my way.
love,
cheryn =)
