THE SEARCH

The search to find out where we as individuals fit into the big picture is a daunting one to say the least.

You may feel unhappy or dissatisfied with your life. You may wonder what is real, what is not real about your purpose in life. Do I even have a purpose? If so, what could it possibly be?

You may be of an age where you’re looking behind you and realizing that wasn’t the life you had intended, but that’s what it is and there ya have it and now that you’re halfway through it believe whole heartedly– it’s too late.

You may be young and have your whole life in front of you and still have no clue where to even begin?

If you feel or have felt any of the above – I can tell you from personal experience, no matter what point in life you find yourself – IT IS NEVER TOO LATE!

I no longer think about life in a linear fashion. I do not believe that this gift of life is a straight line – you know the typical cradle to death scenario which has been ingrained into our psyche since the beginning.

I have previously mentioned a bit about my life, but what I have left unsaid to this point is that even in the darkest hours of my life, two things have always remained constant from a very early age; the first is that I always felt deep inside that there was something bigger than myself out there and the second, I innately knew that no matter what happened, everything was going to be ok.

These two things remained during homelessness, addiction, broken marriage, and a self-destructive nature I had no understanding of at the time.

I can also say that because of those feelings that remained constant within me, I was always trying to better myself, not to fulfill optics for others, but I was searching for something – of course I had no idea what that something was until a few years ago – I was searching for me.

Now, this is where the first five paragraphs of this post come into play. We are searching for who we are and trying desperately to understand how we fit into this tidy puzzle called life – a life defined by others.

WE DON’T FIT – EACH OF US ARE UNIQUE – SO HOW CAN WE FIT INTO A MOLD CREATED BY SOMEONE ELSE  – Think square peg into a round hole – Simply doesn’t work and if you force it, it will change the structures into something else.

Blessings to you!
