Sometimes In Life
Sometimes in life, I need to stop for a moment. And, I must stop for that moment. I should not keep going without taking the time, the moment to ponder for what is next to come. I must not chase after my shadow without spending time to appreciate what is there in my hands.
There must be a reason when I stop for that moment. What is important is for me to be grateful. I have to be thankful to what life has given me, to where it has brought me. At that moment, I need to realize what I have done, what I have traded on all my options.
In this world that is full of pleasure so frail, I need to sit back to smell the roses. Wisely, I must be grateful and acknowledge the source of goodness in my life. I need to pause to recognize the daily moments that bring me joy and be thankful.
Day by day, everything about my life shall unfold. Should I not take the time to stop for that moment, I may not know who I am. I may continue to wander, might be blindly or carelessly, without letting my soul to guide me.
When I take the time to stop for a moment, I am allowing my mind to rejuvenate and to slow down. Only when I stop that I can have a deeper understanding of appreciation. Only when I am taking my time to take a breather that I can be reminded about the purpose of life.
