How do I do this?

I guess that depends on the question.  Getting from point A to point Z? It’s basically a question of where and what you want to be in life. The biggest problem for all of us in this process is first realizing you will never make it to point Z! It really shouldn’t be important to you anyway. The second biggest problem is we forget that you have to go through points A, B, C, etc to get there. Everyone always wants to skip the hard to stuff to get to the end of the rainbow. There is no easy way or shortcuts to reach the person you want to be. The other problem is we get sidetracked. Not by who we want to be, but by stuff. You know getting more stuff, getting better stuff, and getting bigger stuff. It’s almost like relationships. People are always searching for better instead of looking for the best in what they have! They start to fail to see what has been in front of them in the entire time. Me being a Christian and having a strong faith in God, I have had the following conversation with several people. What is god trying to tell me? You get so wrapped up in the question and looking for the answer you fail to see what is right in front of you! God does not drop you a roadmap from the sky. We were given free will for a reason! If you keep looking and listening you will never see the obvious. You end up seeing what you want to see or what you think you should see.  Why do so many people spend so much time wrapped up in the destination and forget about the journey? Why is today called the “present?” Because it is a gift from God! The past is only important from the standpoint of what you have learned from it. The future is only important from the standpoint of tomorrow. Today is what matters and what you do with it! Love the people that love you. Forgive the people that have hurt you. Have hope and faith that your today is better than your yesterday. Don’t get caught up in looking for answers. The answers will come when you stop looking for them. One step at a time is all you can take. If you fall get right back up and if you are doing it right there will always be hand right there when you need it most! Take the journey and don’t worry about where it is taking you, just enjoy the ride. Feel blessed because you are!
