How's Life?

What an absolutely wild ride life is. It really feels like the most incredible gift and opportunity God could have bestowed upon us. 

There are moments, though, where a profound weariness sets in - and I'm talking about myself here - where the thought of simply 'not being here' has crossed my mind. But then I remember, this living, breathing existence is a miracle. It's about feeling, growing, changing, finding, exchanging energies, and creating something new. Even when it's tough, there's so much wonder in simply being. 

It's complex, messy, beautiful, and looking at everything around me its utterly fundamental.

My life was never easy, still isn't, especially coming from a not-so-privileged family where my parents worked hard to make ends meet. Growing up, I didn't really feel unfortunate because, I mean I was a kid, and my parents tried their hardest to support my sister and me in every way they knew. Can't really blame them, life happens. I'm blessed to have both of my parents. I love them.

However, my upbringing taught me stuff at a very young age. I knew I had to be the change I want to see in my family. To become better so that I can do better. That's where I am now, challenging and improving myself. 

I would say I'm an inquisitive, ambitious, thoughtful, driven person who loves personal development and intellectual understanding. I have to make it, or my spirit will not rest.

You know that feeling? That nostalgic dreamy sense that washes over you, making you feel like you were made for something bigger, like you're destined for greatness? It hits me often. It's an unshakeable certainty that God has already secured my success, and my only job is to go out and claim it.

Sometimes I think and wonder what if I'm delusional? But I would rather feed my delusion than living my life each and every day feeling like I have nothing to live for.

I'm treating life as it comes and just trying to stay optimistic as it approaches. I'll cry when I have to and laugh when I get the chances, and express every emotion, because that's part of the course and meaning of life.

A wise person once said:

"Life is what happens to us while we are making other plans" its relatable observation about the unpredictable and often surprising nature of life, and how it unfolds independently of our intentions.
