The Vanities Of Life

The rules of life are universal, obvious, and simple. We all choose every day whether we are on the side of truth (God) or lies (devil). The rules of life aren’t about making lots of money and being incredibly successful. Its quite simple about how you feel inside, how you affect people around you, what sort of  friend, partner and parent you are, what sort of impact you make on the world and what sort of impression you leave in your wake.

1 Corinthians 5:29-31 “But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none; And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not; And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away”

 

You‘ll get older but not necessarily wiser. Be being kind to yourself and to other. Be forgiving and accept that it’s all part of growing older but not wiser routine. Wisdom is not about making mistakes, but about learning to escape afterwards with our dignity and sanity intact. The older you get, the more areas you have covered to make mistakes in. Accept what is done is done and you need to just get on with things.

Accept yourself you don’t have to improve or change or strive for perfection. Quite the opposite, just accept. That means accepting all his warts and emotional lumps and bumps, the bad bits, the weaknesses and the rest of it. Accept that you are what you are. You are doing the best you can at this point in time, so give yourself a part on the back and press on.

Know what count and what doesn’t. Focus on what is important, to you in your life, and make positive change to ensure you feel happy with what you are dedicating your life to. It means knowing, roughly, where you are going and what you are doing. Dedicate your life to something worthy. Be flexible in your thinking. Once your thoughts gets crystallized, rigid, formed. You’ve lost the battle. Once you think you have all the answers, you might as well hang you boos.

Once you get set in your ways, you’re already part of history. To get the most out of life you have to keep all your options open. keep your thinking and life flexible. Try to see life not as the enemy, but as friendly sparring partner. If you are flexible you’ll have fun. If you stand your ground you’re likely to get knocked about a bit. You have to see life as a series of adventures.

 

Each adventure is a chance to have fun, learn something, explore the world, expand your circle of experience and friends, and broaden your horizons. Shutting down to adventure means exactly  that you are shut down. Take an interest and be on the side of truth, not the side of lies or deception. We get torn between what we want and what is good for others. Only dead fish swim with the stream.  Life is difficult.
