Moment by Moment

Dancing Dream

Have you ever wondered why life is the way it is?  I mean like what makes something happen?  Is it all just a game of chance?  Or is there some logical rationale to the things that happen moment by moment.  Are we just little cells all looped together beating in unison or is their an intelligent design to the way in which our lives are shaped?  As I look around at the world I live in I see different people with different mindsets,  All trying to get ahead or be noticed for some reason or another.  Then there are those that have no obvious purpose in what they are doing.  Like untrained animals they just forage through life trying to get a free meal while destroying everything they touch!  is that just by chance that these people exist?  Do we serve a higher purpose?  What happens to us after the lights go out and we are gone?  What difference did our lives make?  Why do we see some people as "good"  and some people as "bad"?   Does society really get to dictate what and how we think?

It has been said, "You observe a lot by watching..."  Take a look at yourself!  Do you like what you see?  Are you happy with who you are?  Has your life been one of mere existence or can you point to those times that the world has been blessed by your participation in it?   Innocence is lost in many ways.  Life has handed out its share of bad apples!  But how we approach life with all its inconsistencies and troubles determines our role in the game.  Yes life is a game!  A game of life and death.  A game of "catch me if you can!"  A place where only the strong survive!  And yet we keep looking for more!  More pleasure.  More Fun.  More! More! More!

Maybe what we need is less!  Less stress.  Less attachments to things.  Less concern for our own legacy...  Look around!  What do you see?  The changes you desire to see in others starts with "the man in the mirror."  That face staring back at you.  Yes - YOU!  It is just that complex.  It is just that simple!  Everything rises or falls because you can perceive it.  If you can dream it you can create it.  So dream big!  Dream well.   Dream pretty and good! But never stop dreaming.  Because when you stop dreaming - you're DEAD!
