Thoughtful Tuesday

Are you living? It’s once been said that death is mans greatest fear. It’s the thought and the process of leaving this earth that makes even the strongest man weary. The knowing that one day your words and actions will become memories that slowly slip from the minds of the living. Yet, we forget that living is also feared and we we spend so much time wrapped up in the pursuit of prevention that we forget to simply LIVE. We instead run from living while hide from death, and the story of a beautiful fulfilled life never gets written. It’s like a life story going unwritten and buried with the life meant to be significant. Living fearful of the end doesn’t stop the process, yet it stops us from living the best life already written. Why aren’t we living?

fear /fir/ noun
1. an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat.
synonyms: terror, fright, fearfulness, horror, alarm, panic, agitation, trepidation, dread, consternation, dismay, distress; – Google.com

Being fearful of a process that will happen regardless if you are ready or not is not going to prevent it. It’s the lack of living that we should be fearful of, instead of dodging and hiding from it….the end. Your life should be lived so boldly that it fears no goal, no man, or no end. Ask yourself: How do you feel about your life? Are you living every day in the beauty of living or fear of the ending? Do you love what you’re doing? Are you excited every single moment?  Are you living your best life? If NO crosses your mind more than YES than fear is your guide and living has taken a deep slide and living a life of “go and hide.” Live your wildest dreams aside from what you think may happen and the amount of energy it may take. As you have learned to fear the end you have placed the end of the many hopes and dreams you promised yourself. Burying and weeping over the things that placed smiles on your face and placing promise in your story. It’s the fear of fearing the end that has placed your life fearful of living its best life given.

The dreams attached to your life have no ending. There is no expiration date of the dreamer and no termination letter waiting for the believer. The end is only noticed when we stop believing and acknowledging that all things are possible. Awakening goals and breathing expectancy into all the dreams for the development of a Best Selling  autobiography of a life lived in beauty of the expecting dreamer.

I am reminded of these quotes that speak into the reason of my posting today.

“The biggest adventure you can ever take is to live the life of your dreams.” – Oprah Winfrey

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.” Don’t be trapped – Steve Jobs

Why not be adventurous? Why not live, living that there is no ending? Why not dream and live your biggest dreams? Why not?

Stop living in the fear of the end and encouraging the process of fear in the living. Embrace life and hold on to it! Achieving all that you want, because the ride my seem long, but the journey is short. LIVE ON like there is no ending. Ending your life goals expectancy is ending your life because the ride is over.

mOOd: Fear the end no more!
