What do you do when you suddenly realize that you are alone, and the future ahead of you is nothing but a blur? You find yourself still trapped in the maze of not being able to know where you are headed...with myriad of choices up front, you can only stare...and you stand still...even breathless...
I was busy at work one day and while on a call, I looked down on the floor and was faced with the glaring: what am I doing here? Then it hit me. What greater purpose do I have to achieve here? Is it worth abandoning the noble task I have been used to?
Are you in a certain situation because God allowed it to happen? Is your free will solely your own decision? Why is it than when life's details become so confusing, we tend to look at the bigger view? We tend to make specifics hazy and just look at life in general - are you generally happy? Then you're good...but it does not always feel like it...
Life is not perfect. That is the ugly truth. But what can we do if the universe is not ready yet to conspire with us to be where we want to be, have what we want to possess, experience what we want to do, live with whom we would like to belong to? There will be moments of regrets, frustrations, disappointments, even wishful thinking.
Each of us has a purpose. Each of us has a goal. Each of us has a plan to pursue, whether we know it or not. But we all have our own ways and means. And though our individual differences may set us apart, we all are one in keeping up with what life has to offer, in our determination to make life livable, lovable and laughter-worthy. We may not always know when, where or how but deep inside we just got to believe and nurture the hope that we will get there somehow.
Be patient. Just hang on.
Be faithful. Just do it.
He will do the rest.
Amen!
