11/15/10

Sometimes, all it takes is a look back to see how far you've come for a little encouragement.  I think sometimes we get so wrapped up in the fact that we're not where we want to be that we forget to relish in the progress we've made thus far from where we used to be.  Life is a journey.  We spend 90% of our time  actually getting "there" and only 10% actually enjoying "there" before we're off to find another "there".  It's a vicious cycle we must all recognize in order to find some peace and quiet in our soul.  It's our inner man that can really take hold.  We're getting mad at this one and that one, this thing and that thing when we're really just battling our self.  Our mindset, our thoughts are the things that we must really get in check before we can lead a productive and fruitful life.  If there is one thing we can learn from celebrities, who have shown themselves less than perfect, is that money and fame truly can't buy you happiness.  If you don't do the work on self then money and things are just playing as a cover up.  You can spend it and spend it and still end up miserable inside.  A peaceful soul is priceless.  It's more valuable than jewelry and gold and all of the worldly possessions any man can have.  Besides, what good are worldly possessions without the peace of mind to really enjoy and appreciate what you have.  It's kind of like, what good is it to have a bunch of stuff if you have no one to share it with, which is why we have to be mindful of how we treat one another, especially our loved ones and friends who we value more than anything.  Until next time, peace out and remember to love and be love.

Sincerely,

Kisha Deniece
