“I might bend, but I won't break…I might stumble, but I won't fall”
I think it occurs several times in all of our lives where we just get tired
of reaching for the goal to be happy. Isolation is so much easier because it doesn’t
have any requirements and the only rules that have to be followed are the ones
you set for yourself. Getting out there; testing the waters; building
relationships and friendships is so much harder because of the risk that it
involves with the heart and soul. That’s why we tend to lean to settling when
it comes to our lives. We don’t reach for too much because of the risk of
failure, let down, embarrassment or disappointment. But here is the thing: that’s
not living. Living freely and abandoning fear requires you to take the risk,
expect some failure, rearrange your plans, but to never stop. What if the fulfillment
is not in the destination but rather in the journey. What if the journey is the
destination? A lot of times we get so convinced in our own minds about the
picture we have set in our heads that we forget to listen to the messages of
our hearts: “Did you see that”, “Did you hear that”, “How did that feel”. It’s not
about arriving so much as it is more about growing, learning and discovering
more about yourself. Happiness isn’t outside in, but rather inside out. Most of
the time the reason we haven’t fulfilled all that we are suppose to fulfill is
because we haven’t felt all that we were supposed to feel. So when you’re
tired, and down and out and ready to give up. Take a breather, rearrange your
thoughts and then get it together. Sometimes there is a reason why your dreams
only live in your head and never make it to your heart. #CatchTheLesson
