A Journey

Breathing deeply, filling up all the space within my lungs I feel this wonderful yet terrifing journey that I have traveled thus far. Life is what we humans make of it. A tangle mess of failures and successes all rolled into hundreds of thousands of brief moments.Sometimes we all must stop, hesitate and then take a review of our own journey. Looking back into my own rear view mirror I am amazingly reminded of all that has happen to me. How often I hear peope from all walks of life, young and old alike asking that age old question, why me? There are in thruth no easy answers, but the one thing that most often comes to mind, if not you then who? All of my experiences are unique for my life and all of the choices that I have made. With those selection comes the good and the bad,my personal teacher in my life. If not for my very own experiences then how would I have become the person that I am today? My life, my journey is the very tool that has taught me how to live as well as how not live. In the long run it doesn't matter whether or not I have had too many good or bad choices, only that I learn from each one. In the end what will matter the most is that I have taken something of importance that will improve my life. I therefore must have a value system where by I improve my life's circumstances. Life is sometimes like the same replay over and over always giving us the same daily flavors. In the end it is up to me the sort out those flavors, chose the ones that don't work and stir the ones that do. Often times I love the flavors of life and at other times I can't stand them, but the experience of those flavors remains my greatest teacher always. I know that I am fully and completely blessed in this life. Knowing that I will still have bad days ahead of me I strive to find those good flavors that will serve me best. Funny how facing death can quickly change your perspective in just one skip of a heartbeat.Yet just being able to breath is the best of all possible feelings and this is life at it's best. Learning to be well, live well is for me the greatest journey of all.
