Navigating the journey of life

which we made in the past.




It been said that there are only two emotions which we live with: love and fear; I relate to it more as "like and dislike." We gravitate to the things that we like, and steer away from those which we dislike. Life is like a river as we flow through life; if you get too close to one side of the bank you are usually drawn into the shore by the strong current, as is the same with the opposite side of the river. The trick is to stay in the middle of the stream; in a nice even flow of life.




Another trick in navigating your way through life is choosing who you pattern your life after; or who you hang around with. Outside opinions have a way of influencing the way in which we think and make decisions. When it comes down to making a quick decision I usually go with my gut instinct; first instincts are usually right in most cases.




The best way to navigate through life is to be aware of what the day brings to you; and strive for the best outcome in each situation. If you try to force things to happen in life they usually never happen. Everything happens when the time is right; and if it doesn't; then it probably wasn't supposed to be; you can't force a square peg into a round hole.




The best part of life is the journey; so steer clear of the bog potholes in life, and try to stay in the middle of the stream. I find that things happen more easily in life if I let things flow in a nice even keel. Keep your mind open to opportunities that are sent your way, and the big break you've been waiting for; might be just around the next corner.
