Forgive to Grow, Live to Know

Great things. Forgiving, being forgiven, being open, respect, getting what you give really is true, love, loyalty, kindness, understanding, sympathy, listening, time, and courage. Courage is something that has been cultivated since birth. Courage was confronting issues one doesn’t know they or their family has, identifying them, taking action, and resolution. People have helped inspire changes in patterns in my self, friends, family, and many others, but may not have realized it. For that, we should thank others more, have more manners, and engage more with people and ideas. We make mistakes, reacted incorrectly to some situations, and wanted to request your forgiveness. Life is about difficult lessons and situations of family, your heart, friends, work, self-awareness, and truly looking at yourself and the path you need to be on to fulfill your journey. It’s how one reacts to obstacles that define their identity. You’ve reacted with passion and action, and for that you are developing a great identity. We are all learning, seeking, and hopefully taking action, and are not perfect by far. You take risks, put your heart out there, and experience the great things in life. Sometimes you get a warm tingling heart, and other times you get hit with a sledge hammer, both equally significant and important.

Time on this planet is a short blessing. We cannot become closed minded, and closed hearted. Words and actions have tremendous impact on our hearts, and can tattoo them disrupt fully or elegantly. It’s only negative if one does not transition it into an opportunity. Sometimes our hears are restless and starving sometimes too, so I hope you are filling it with goodness, delegating your time the way God wants you too, and enjoying life immensely. We need to guide and support people on their quest for growth and change. It can be done, does happen, but just isn’t transparent or seen overnight. The beauty and essence of experience needs to be danced with. How you untie the knots in your stomach dictates your level of unrest. Life hands us moments of truth when we perhaps should have acted differently, sometimes running wild, and went with instinct, gut, and rapid-fire emotion.

Things are sometimes hard to discuss, or even think about. We lock them in a vault, and the people who achieve greatness in life address these moments, disregard the pain, flood it with love, and fight for the sake of winning ones own time and life back. Sometimes there are moments disclosed that are heart breaking secrets. We regret what we do and say, and also how we reacted, and to this day it can affect us. There will be more times that will be goofy that we may not be ready or equipped or mentally wanting to address. In regards to the stressful moments encountered on our journey, we need to forgive. We’re too blessed to be stressed, and our blessings far outweigh our burdens if we allow them too! Just needed to look up the definitions (and have lessons) of blessed, forgive, thank you, sorry, and love then add them to my vocabulary, and believe in them! We can make a room as big as we want by moving things around, the way we approach and interact with things and people, and how we move about it. Just like we make room + work in our minds and heart, it’s an interactive thing where your nails and hands get dirty and muddy sometimes, but that’s what sinks and soap are for!

Things happen, and I am positive we will find out paths and fit perfectly to what God wants us to do, and where we need to be. We have choice in life, and through that have a decision making style we develop. We need to consciously and intentionally make decisions to develop something better in our lives (purpose and meaning). We all have “tells” like in poker, and I have a good poker face, but restless heart. The restless heart is starving for something, and if you aren’t seeking and taking action to earn that rest, life isn’t as peaceful. Breaking ourselves is kind of like breaking a horse. It takes time, training, more time, more practice, hard work, and many other things to turn into a radiating stallion. We should celebrate life, create a “WOW” factor, and do that through each step, breath, and act we perform. Fins what shakes your core, and form through different situations. Diversity breeds success. You’re not a disposable pleasure, but a meaningful pursuit, warm sunshine in the dark. I don’t want to just give advice, but receive as well.

Just like business, you can’t departmentalize departments, or things won’t get done, interact, improve, and engage in things together with action and communication. We’re all like amoebas that shape and shift around, and it’s necessary to be flexible, adapt, and change when necessary. We have systems that need changed around us, and in ourselves. I look at it like dismantling tyranny. Tyranny against self-absorption, systems of oppression, getting addicted to drugs, alcohol, sex, money, and all the other superficial things that fade like beauty. The true beauty is in things you can build on brick and mortar, not sand. The things that are sold, built to last, don’t leak or seep water into little holes like evil and little things turn your head to merge their way into your life creatively. That’s why one needs community, support, encouragement, and friends/family who step in when you “step out”. For freedom we take risks to grow, which creates change, and sometimes pain.

We should release burdens, grow, and realize there are fundamental flaws during out distractions in life that we need to give humanity back. We will make mistakes, we’re not perfect, and never will be. We will be tested, moved, battered, wounded, heal, and measured in how we react to these things, and define our identity. Change is the only constant, and once we learn that and how to adapt and be flexible to things, our happiness level increases exponentially. Imperfections make us “perfect”. As long as we have boundaries related to what imperfections we disagree with and put up with. We will have instincts and desires that tempt us, and we will fail. If we do it repeatedly, then there’s an issue. Break the cyclical patterns that have become habitual obstacles. We affect the things around us, more importantly the people around us. Karma, golden rule, and “what goes around comes around”, truly materializes eventually. We’ll have “itches”, but we choose what we scratch.

If we were stripped of aesthetics, what would we be? Our core, glowing, layers of the onion peeled away, to find the bulb in the middle. Naked, raw, and authentically real. It can be exhausting, we can be exhausting to others, exhaust ourselves when attempting to exhaust all resources when taking steps to meaning and purpose. Life can be a lot like a math problem, system, or algorithm. You take steps, learn fundamentals, but need to figure things out to get the answer. Sometimes life is a little more intricate than an algorithm.

We encounter things and people for reasons. Things end superficially, but after you spend and give you heart, time, spirit, and body do another, it never goes away. Memories, energy, thoughts, and how you are today are all affected from your experiences. Perspectives change, people change in some ways, but their core values and the way they are don’t drastically change unless there are drastic situations. It’s part of being human and within the scope of life, but also our duty to become a better being.
We all have any ability we would like, if we merely open ourselves up to it and stop limiting ourselves, or let the pain of pursuing displeasure ourselves from our dreams. How deliciously inducing would it be if we stopped, removed the noise, closed our eyes, enjoyed the silence, and noticed what our hear beat murmured while in a relaxed meditated state? How sweet it would be, to take action in the face of unknowing fear, experience, and expertise. If the heroes of our planet listened to all the other nuisance noises and naysayer’s, we more than likely would have a uniform earth of non-diverse withered weeds. Bear fruit, stretch your roots, grasp beyond imagination! I don’t want to be redundant, spouting about life, energy, cliché quotes. We need to become something different from the mundane mayhem, provide something of balance and harmony, bring something different to the table, eliminate mental strikes, privileged to be here and on this earth with the ability to convey to you your importance, not wanting to be melodramatic, but rather exhibit loving humility (and risk of sending such authenticity). We need to represent freedom, joy, acceptance, value, worth, ambition, love, appreciation, forgiveness, care, and heart.
