Living Your Life

We must all live our lives a day at a time. There's no other way to do it. Some like to jump way ahead, or many that I know take a step forward, and stop to look over their shoulder at the past. Doing this only lets you move at half-speed into the future. Why should we be scared of what's to come? We've all had bad times, and good times no matter the magnitude of them. We must march forward. There's time to look back and browse at the past when you reach the top of the mountain, or the end of your final destination.

We live, not to die, but to live. I know this sounds a little ludacris, but if you think about it, not too hard though, it's a simple thought. We live to live, to experience things we've never experienced before, to feel every emotion possible. Hurting is sometimes one of these feelings, but remember, you're not the only one suffering. There's others out there standing with you right now.

Don't ever lose sight of the road you are walking on. Wandering off is all too easy in the world we live today, because the road is covered in dust, and we can't see it too well. Think, though, the harder you march and stomp your feet down upon the path, the deeper your footsteps, and the more dust you knock off this great road.

Move forward, and don't look back until you get where you want to be. Those memories will stay. The rewards may not seem to be what you thought them to be. We will never know until we get there.
