Don’t Give Up

There are so many things in life that can try to steer us away from our goals or aspriations. When you have a passion, or have your mind set on a specific path in your life, push through. Find a way to get there and don’t let road blocks move you away from your final destination.

We can easily fall down.

We can easily give up.

What takes more tenacity us to push through.

It takes strength to get back up.

You have it in you to get back up.

You have it in you to succeed.

Believe in yourself and find those who also believe in you and want to help you, by encouraging you to go after what you are aspiring to go after.

Don’t ever give up on yourself.

You determine your future.

You determine the outcome.

Don’t give up.

Introspection

Life is full of lessons.

We can tend to think that one simple solution will solve all of our problems.

Money.

We can think that inner world of ours will be more peaceful if we have more.

Maybe we can work more, take on more jobs, get new credit cards, pull out loans, so we can buy all the new things, so we will feel better.

Feeling better has nothing to do with accumulating more things.

This can bring an even deeper darkness and sense of feeling unfulfilled, as we continue to paddle away from shore, with less and less chance of being able to find the solid land once more.

Solid land is like our peace of mind.

Land grounds us.

Stability and peace come from feeling like you have a solid ground under your feet.

When you know what to expect, or can at least have some preparation for what is to come, that brings peace.

When we are constantly running after more ways to feed our ego, or fulfill this need to feel whole, without actually doing any inner work or introspection, we can find ourselves, spinning around on a boat without oars.

Money can be helpful, it is a very useful form of trade, but allowing it to hold so much power, as to expect it to solve all of your problems, is giving into false hope.

You will only feel fulfilled when you start to work on healing the inner being, that is YOU.

When you start to work on yourself, from the inside out, you are able to create a more solid ground to stand on.

This also gives you the ability to face each storm.

Sail Away

There is this place I want to show you…

It will take a few months, or so, to get there.

We must take a boat, for we can only reach it by way of the sea, as there is no other way to find this special place.

You will see, it will be grand, we will have an adventure, just wait and see.

We will look over to the land, as we take the to the water, hand in hand, to find our special place, on the sea, aboard Harmony.

You and me, we can do it all.

You and me, we will see it all.

You and me, we will be so happy at sea.

There won’t be a sky that we won’t sleep under, or a star we don’t look to, for our map as we sail away, on the wide open sea.

The sea may rage, we may face storms, but we will find peace and Serenity onboard Harmony.

Who knows how long we will be, it may take longer than a few months, we may be sailing for years to come.

Storms may take us off course, or we may have to stop on some islands for more resources, but we will be okay, because we will have each other and Harmony will keep us safe.

We may miss our friends and family who remain back on land, but there is so much for us to explore, we might just need to take our time, for the land will always be there, yet the time to explore is now.

What is time without an adventure to spend it on.

What is life without some freedom to explore.

This life is the only life we have, and it’s time that we go and see the world, from the eyes of a captain, on a boat called Harmony.

Let’s take this voyage, and navigate the sea.

We will have a compass and plenty of things we may need.

There will be no worries, except for what Mother Nature might bring.

It’s going to be the best, an adventure of a lifetime.

You and me, I just know, we can live in harmony, on the open sea.
