conscie et libere vivere

A rather disheartening thing about living in America is that sometimes we as a people forget there are millions living in this world who couldn’t even fathom an American lifestyle. We as a nation constantly lose awareness of those less than fortunate than ourselves. But hey, it’s not a Perfect World.

Simplistic Fulfillment

It doesn’t matter how life was first created. Scientists and philosophers waste years trying to decide whether the chicken or the egg came first. When in reality, the only certainty on this molten-cored rock, floating through space is that you and I are living and breathing creatures, with an infinite mind attached to our bodies. Live to enjoy every breath of life, every sound, every taste, every touch, and life will most definitely be fulfilling. Live solely based on alternative motives, such as pleasing others, being the prettiest, smartest, or most talented, and regret will surely surface itself later in your life. Why? Because when we’re preoccupied with such nonsense, life doesn’t wait around. As Bueller says, “If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” But that doesn’t mean don’t do what you love. In fact, it means the opposite. Follow your dreams; where does it say they can’t come true? Many who are desperate, or just over think things often ask, “What is the point of life?” To which I smile and respond, “Stop asking questions. Just live. Nothing more, nothing less. Life is completely what you make of it. Life is beautiful, whatever way you look at it. And ya know what? I kinda like it that way.”
