Some people are fortunate enough to figure out what it’s all about. They get their life squared away. Many people gain a partial purchase on life and get it figured out as much as they can. I salute both of those groups. Some never seem to get behind a thing substantial and leave little behind them as a witness.
In all of this is a simple question, What did I wake up for this morning? Why did I get out of bed? Is there anything good that is going to happen today and what can I do to see it happen? Am I learning anything, am I learning the right things? Am I learning something useful? Am I learning something I can apply. Am I moving beyond learning and not living just to learn, because life is not made up of constant learning but learning to move to application.
Ask yourself the question. What the Hell am I about today? What is it that this day offers to me? Is heaven real and is earth real and can I join the two together?
This is the constant. The people who are most peaceful at the end of their lives are the ones that asked this question. They didn’t change their mind every day nor their job every month, but they lined up their attitude to maximize their future. We all pursue something, what is it for you?
