Time, a constant variable... what does it really mean???
"time changes everything"... Does it?? Don't we change in time??? Who really does the action here?? If we stay put for 10 years, the world around us will have changed... but what about us???
Time doesn't change anything... but it definatelly gives us the chance to change and it is up to us to take that chance or not...
I am not the same person I was 10 years ago... The essence is still there and we all do mature through time and life experiences... I like to think I have grown, that I have become someone I am proud to be... a happy person inside and outside...
Being happy is not a constant... people can go through all their lives and never have a happy moment... no one is happy all the time... Im sorry Charlotte... but, no one...
life is made of moments and when you have more happy moments than sad ones... The math is simple, isnt it???
but life is not simple, life is not black and white... life is purple, orange, neon and baby blue... life has shades and tones that we never saw before... life surprises us everyday, every moment... Taking advantage of those surprises is what makes for a full life... not standing in the side lines and taking charge of our own future...
Not everyone has that hunger for life and experiences... I have met a few of those people throughout my life... they are usually content people that dont aim for much higher than they have... When our paths crossed I noticed that we were incompatible exactly because of that... it doenst mean I cant be their friend, but its definatelly not easy... that stillness of being, bothered me...
I remember a chat I had with two friends on the beach once... one of them was like me... wants to see the world and has no limits for growth... the other didnt even think about ever traveling abroad, she didnt care for it... it was weird for me... seeing someone that content with so little... little for me... not for her...
That's what make people so interesting in my opinion... what would be of the green if wasnt for the purple... the diversity keeps it all interesting... we learn from everyone around us and that is amazing...
Me??? Im gonna keep aiming higher and higher... living life as much as I can... taking each moment in and taking chances along the way... right until that counter hits zero on the countdown timer of MY life...
What are YOU going to do????
