The sun sets on another day…
Sunset was beautiful, but before the sunset I watched clouds battle in the sky along a blue horizon and wondered who would win. In the end it was me as I enjoyed the show without reserve.
I thought a lot about words today after I finished that simple post on how to live life. Then I thought about how we should approach life. As I did so the word that kept coming to mind was fearsome. Not because I want anyone to scare anyone else, but more because when you approach life in a fearsome way, you can only move forward.
I have known a lot of people in my life that were afraid. For one reason or another the world slides past them and as it does so they find themselves wondering what comes next. If you live life in a fearsome manner, you decide what comes next.
Although it’s true that we can never really know what’s around the next corner, by deciding the direction that we’re going and living life in a fearsome manner we will face whatever comes with the tenacity to move forward or to overcome the obstacles laying before us. It sounds easy. Sometimes it is. Sometimes we need that little extra to understand that life cannot get us down unless we let it.
Do you live your life fearsomely? When something comes along that slows you down do you face it or do you walk away? Do you run? All I suggest is that when that thing comes that is not the way you want to go that you face it and solve it one way or another. Sometimes that means having the courage to take things to the next level, sometimes it means having the courage to walk away.
So as the sun sets on another day, I hope you find the courage to wrench forward when others may fail. I hope you can overcome the obstacles that are put in your path and in the process can see clearly every day, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and rawr…
