Happy Sunday!!! Wow, the Oscar's are proving to be diverse this year. I have watched this event ever since I was a kid. Can you believe that we all wanted to grow up? As a kid, that's all I could think. I can't wait to grow up. I want to be a grown up. I'm sick of being a kid, I want to grow up.how silly. How stupid were we? We really didn't know. Our parents tried to warn us, but we had no idea. Now that we're grown, we're trying to roll the clock back. All we see on social media are items from the good old days. Memorabilia and things that remind us of times gone by. Now, we dream about going back to normal. You really want to just stop the clock and enjoy the moment. But the moments are passing us by. The pandemic ripped our blinders off and rocked the entire world. We're not capable of really sticking to what it was that we want to do as an adult. Life is taken us in a completely different direction than where we thought we'd be. The thought of looking back can overwhelm the desire to move forward. Unlike Lot's wife, we're not turning into pillars of salt. Reminiscing about the days gone by as we're trying to reach for that feeling again. Nowadays, we have all of these mass shootings. We have all of this killing. It's just absolute insanity. We really want to come back to the center,. We want to come back home to the place where we belong. There was no such thing as left or right, or in between. We want to just maintain who we are and who we have been. How do we get back? How do we maintain some level of normalcy in each changing time? Well, one interesting thing is to tap into your fountain of youth. There was something bubbling up on us and the inside when we were kids. Where we had reckless abandon. Where we just knew we could conquer the world in our own little minds. We can do the things that we set out to do. GOOD NEWS! We can tap into that again. It's good to go back and revisit some of the things that we did as a child. I found this very interesting post, and they suggested doing the following things:
-Revisit childhood memories through photo albums and storytelling
-Spend time doing activities you enjoyed as a child
-Write a letter to your younger self
-Watch movies or read books from your childhood
Now, what I would suggest is that when you do these things, you want to take your time. You really want to investigate and see how did we get here. Where was this road map? How is it that we got so far off course? Is there a GPS to get us back? Or do we need to leave well enough alone. Sometimes trips are meant to have been lived, and left in the past. Sometimes the memories are the good things that we hold on to. However, we must press forward. Whatever it is for you, is certainly something you want to think about. Certainly something you want to investigate. Sometimes it's the best way to find your happy. Sometimes it's good to have an outside voice interrupt those voices in your head, so you can really map out a clear path. Clarity is one of the best things you could possibly have, and obedience is the next. You want to stay the course that you're charting for yourself. There's no reason why the map can't be rewritten. There's no reason why the journey can't be explored. There's no reason that you have to stop here and stop now. Don't get stuck. Move yourself. Move along. Keep it going,. Keep pushing,. Keep climbing. Keep striving,. Keep it alive for yourself and for those who coming after you. Realize that what you're doing not only affects you now, but affects future generations. It's amazing how one simple act can change the trajectory of your whole family. So please take that into consideration and tap in. Don't fall out. Tap in. Please share your thoughts below. I want to thank you for supporting this blog space, and reading this article. Please stay safe, healthy, and warm. Take Care and God Bless!!!
