The Blessed Life

To believe is important.  My well being counts on it.  When I truly believe in some things, it shapes my values, my life.  It influences on my actions to become pro-active.  In deciding how to act, it matters very much what I believe in. However, to believe can be tricky too.  It has to be some forms of well judged beliefs.  It has to make sense to me.  I should not force myself to believe some things that are against my conscience.  Or, some things that are at odds with my philosophy in life. To believe does not change reality.  But, it changes the perception of reality.  Perception is a crucial part of how I react to my surroundings and how I interact with people.  To believe is to have confidence in the truth. Believing is not about a wish or a hope to change anything.  It is a condition about acceptance.  It is a catalyst to transform so that I can act purposefully.  A belief system shapes the outcome to life and it creates structure to opportunities and possibilities.

The energy of greed is a bottomless pit.  It exhausts an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reach

As much as I want my life to be smooth sailing, I should not be alarmed that life can also throw difficult scenarios at me when I least expect it.  It is the reality of living a life on Mother Earth.   Everything that exists has a purpose, or more.  Everything there is to life is about teaching me with lessons. To survive the journey in my life, it is good that I do not give up on hope.  I have to turn everything that I am experiencing into positive.  I have to accept that life has its ups and downs.   These are trials of life that I cannot avoid.  They are designed to make me to be a better individual. Having hope gives me the courage to think that things would get better with time.  Hope is the only energy that keeps things moving forward.  Hope gives the strength and ability to bounce life back from whatever obstacles. To have hope is a want, something to wish for, to make life better.  It helps me to stay focus to pass through a tough situation more bearable.  Hope opens up the fut
