The End And The Beginning

The future was yesterday, is happening today, and will be tomorrow. With every end there is another beginning.

Every day we are working for something more and hopefully today, we are further than where we were yesterday.

Strength comes in waves... sometimes you are full of strength and could conquer the world... sometimes you wish you had even enough strength to conquer the day.

You push hoping that all the effort you are giving is getting you somewhere... When you get where you've been trying to go for so long, will it be the place you thought it would be? Will it be everything you dreamed?

So much counts on the decisions we make today. Or does it? Is it really that intense? If we fail is it easy to just pick up the pieces and start over again?

What if you work years to achieve a goal and realize it wasn't something you really wanted? Just start over? Deal with it? Hmmm...

There's pressure... that's obvious... because making good decisions really is important. I think what is more important though is realizing that it isn't your job or education that defines you... it's how you live your life.

Success or failure is relative. I would say that a person who failed 99 times out 100, each time with the hope that next time would be a success and never viewing their self as a failure was a success all along while the person who succeeded 99 times out of 100 and failed the final time couldn't get past the single failure and was miserable was actually a failure because of the way he perceived things.

So, here we are then... still pushing along... getting further to the finish... or do we ever truly reach a finish? I really don't think we do. I think it's just another end and a new beginning and we usually have more than several of these circulating in our lives at once.

It's funny how sometimes when you feel the weakest you are actually exhibiting your strongest qualities.

Everyday there's a new lesson to be learned. Sometimes you learn a lesson today from an action or actions from years ago when you weren't even the same person. Gotta love that karma...

I think life just has it's way of working itself out. I know that even when I am the most scared or sad and I don't know how things are going to turn out or what I should do next... I really do just trust God and things go in the right direction.
