True Destiny; If life is a Journey, Why Go it Alone?

In life there are a million questions, and each time we finally get the answer we are looking for that million mark adds another ten or twelve more questions. We Need to understand that there is never going to be a period in our lives when we are not learning, searching, or trying to figure out which way is up, down, in front, or behind. It would be great if we had all the answers, but in reality that would take all the fun out of living. Well not all the fun, but definitely some of the mystery. I would hate to think that I knew it all, after all, experiencing new things keeps up young and invigorated. Just imagine if you knew it all; wouldn't that take all the fun out of those new experiences?

I'm sure you know people who are stuck in the same old job, living in the same old town, talking to the same old friends, and always telling you they are going no-where fast. You might be able to spend a quiet afternoon with them but after a few hours you are ready to poke your eyes out just to get out of there. We all know these people and we try to steer away from them as much as possible. It's not that we don't like them, but believe you me they will take you down to their level of pity quicker than poop from a goose. It just happens and you can't do anything about it. You might be the most upbeat person walking the face of the earth and just hang around grumpy Gus for a while and you are ready to take the blade to your wrist.

There's no denying that laughter works like a medicine, and I for one love laughing and carrying on. Heck it keeps me young, happy, and more often than not very entertained. So surround yourself with people who make you smile, laugh, and can even help you forget about some of life's daily struggles. Now the struggles may not necessarily go away, but they just might not seem so insurmountable. I've told this to many people, but we often get wrapped around the wagon wheel when we are faced with getting things done, and don't quite know how to accomplish things. We might just walk around aimlessly for a while because we simply don't know how to get things started. Ever been there? I seem to be there every day, now maybe it's my A.D.D., but no matter how you look at it sometimes we just need a little nudge or push from a friend. If you find yourself in this situation reach out to a friend and ask for that friendly kick in the pants. I'm sure each of us have friends who are more than willing to kick you in the ass to get you to do something. Heck isn't that what friends are for.

So here's the bottom line; you're never going to stop asking questions, and you're never going to have all the answers. The best we can hope to expect is that from time to time someone will throw us a bone and along with it an answer to one of life's great mysteries. In the meantime while you are waiting for the answer, get out there and have some fun. You just might change another life by sharing your joy and happiness. And if you are at a point where you lack joy and happiness, well join with someone at the hip who does have it. Laughter is contagious, and you can't be around it very long before you are enjoying every minute of it with a huge smile on your face. I don't care how bad a day you might be having or have had, get yourself laughing and the rest will work it self out. You're just going to have to trust me on this one. Oh, and one more thing, don't let life dictate your actions, you tell it what to do. Think about that.......
