Someone once said,there is no greater thing you can do for yourself other than being true to yourself. I agree with that statement completely. I am one month shy away from my birthday and for some reason I can't wait for it. It just means am growing older (some people would cringe at the thought) and hopefully wiser. But most importantly, I will start to put some pieces of the puzzle together and get a better understanding of who I am, where am coming from and where am headed to. I say this beacuse I was recently given an assignment that is going to test my abilities in a very major way.
A lot has been happening in my life of late. It is just the second month of this year but am feeling like am in the middle of it. You see, I have been in the middle of changing jobs (which am hoping will happen as soon as I can blink) and boy is it draining my energy...I am learn a lot while in the process...that I have to identify that one thing that makes me unique above everyone else. My BFF send me an article yesterday that talks about human strength and what harnessing that strength is all about.
I begin to understand deeper the famous words of the good book "I can do everything through Christ who gives me strength". When He created us in his own image, he gave us something unique to glofy his name. That one thing that we have that when someone else sees it, they know that there is a God that exists. Have you ever seen someone sing so beautifully it makes you want to cry? or someone who paints so well you are left in awe?Or someone who can inspire you to the depths of your soul that you are left full of energy? That is what am talking about. God gives us that, so that through it we can overcome some of the things life throws at us.
Last weekend I was a very busy bee doing mostly nothing but honing my social skills. It that buzz, the crew I was with and I stummbled into a movie called the 3 Idiots. At first we thought it would be the Hangover rendition kind of movie until we pressed play! (I know you are wondering where this is going but it is totally related to everything I said above) Turns out it was a very mushy Indian movie with a theme that moved some people into tears (I will not mention names but its paramount to know that they were men hehehe)
Movie features three interesting people all of whom have made it to the prestigious university of Engineering in India...Bottom line is, one wanted to be a wildlife photojournalist and had no passion whatsoever to Engineering hence always came last in class,the other had a passion for Engineering but he was relying too much on his fear for failure he was actually failing and the third Idiot enjoyed learning and grasping Enginnering in the most unconventional of way he actually always topped his class.
Lessons are stemed from the last one who said...Education only facilitates one to have the wisdom to discover that talent in them and nurture it...I swear I teared when I haeard that statement. It made me go back and re-eveluate myself and my strengths. I discovered there is a lot I need to do to perfect that which is unique to me. I have been sitting on a gold mine all along and it was time I made use of what is mine!
ION: I was a very happy woman yesterday, a ghost form my past who had wronged me in a major way looked for me and apologized, had a splendid time with my sisters, the show down with dad went down!! (I was in spasms of laughter the whole time---but the debuckle was well handled!). And I know an actual rock star hehehe
Today am in a good good place both physically and emotionally....No one and nothing can take that away from me!!
