Loving Life

“If you would not be forgotten as soon as you are gone, either write things worth reading or do things worth writing.”

-Carson McCullers

Live life to the fullest and make a difference if you never do anything substantial no one is going to remember you. Don’t allow anything to stop you from fulfilling your dreams. Whatever you do, make it remember able. Regardless if you keep record of it or if you get someone’s attention that will recognize you for the things that you did. Even if you aren’t known now, you will be remembered once pass away. Someone will recognize you for your accomplishments, just as long as if you did something. Sometimes even keeping a small diary or riding random notes in a book, will be worth reading one day. Your grand-kids will one day want to read the things that you did whether if it was big or small. Even if it is something as little as donating to charity or giving back to the community, those things will always be priceless and worth a read. It doesn’t have to always be leaping over obstacles or boundaries. Not everyone can win a gold medal, but if you can win the gold of someone’s mind and heart then you’ve made something worth not forgetting.

“Passion makes the world go round. Love just makes it a safer place.”

-Ice-T

Passion is basically a strong feeling. Love is the only thing that can control it. If not for love it would be a scary place. When someone becomes passionate, they are blind to what they do or hear or see. Sometimes becoming passionate can make you do bad things like commit a crime or even have greed. The thing about love is that it will make you stop and think. Think about the feelings of others, consider your actions and think twice before you do something. On some circumstances love isn’t something that is selfish, usually someone else or something is involved. Passion will motivate you to continue to do something. Passion will allow the world to keep spinning because even as little as having a job, more than likely the job that you have or want you are passionate in that subject matter. Those jobs that you want or already have are little pieces to this Earth that allows it to keep going round and round. Although, love can make “safer” because being empathetic or having sympathy really makes a difference. Love can change someone’s perspective on life.

“To see a world in a grain of sand And heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand And eternity in an hour”

-William Blake

Nothing is as big as seems and nothing is as small as it seems. What you may seem tiny maybe someone else entire existence. Existence and size is in the eye of the beholder. I believe heaven is real just as much as I believe hell is also. I believe no problem is too big or small for God. Our world is small compared to what God has planned for us or what he has already made. But we can only control or have authority over what we see which is in the palm of our hands. But time is on our sides because even though we can not go back in the past we can always start over. We can flip that hour glass over and start again, despite what the case may be.
