The Rise
I used to think that the United States was the best place in the world to live in. Because of the rights that we were born with. But as I read more & more articles, books, signs or even text messages, I'm reawakened to the limitations that have been forced upon us all. Most people are so lost in the distractions provided that sadly they're too far gone. It's why things have gotten so bad. It's why even the intelligent ones catch themselves sayin' things like, "The end is near," or "Damn, the world really is ending." People have really lost sight of their dreams. Including me. I look back at the last decade alone & I can't believe how much has taken place. I had no idea THEN how life was going to look for me now. I definitely had a different vision.
Then life happens.
Lack of resources has definitely created more boundaries in order for us to see success. Many find themselves giving years of their lives doing something they no longer want to do. All to feed their families, pay bills, car notes, insurance, fees, etc, etc,. We've forgotten to live. To stop spending money. We've forgotten the happiness felt when not a cent is being spent & actually looking at our surroundings that were NOT created by man. Truly, the simple things in life fulfill us more. But too many are unwilling to share these experiences. Let them buy a $3,000 watch though. Or take an extravagant trip. They brag & tell the world. Well, as many as their followers & whomever pays attention to them that is currently on their friends' list. Sure it's nice to have. A privilege to take. Respectively. But then the rest of the year, they're left w/memories of how amazing the trip was or the latest materialistic thing they were able to get their hands on.
Create priceless moments everyday.

It's difficult to empower people & have enough patience to see results. Amongst many things, reconnections are highly important. The few that are genuine & feed off of other's progress, continue observing. Continue learning. But don't be still for too long. You'll lose your place on this journey that is meant to enrich us on a whole other level that the media, those w/authority & most importantly those holding the most power fail to bring to light.
