#MorningInspiration #MorningMotivation #WisdomWednesday - A Short Read to Feed the Soul - Are you living or existing ?

Hello

I am currently writing an article titled: My Journey into living and not just merely existing in life. This inspired me to explore more of the big ideas that I hope to turn into a reality. 

The distinction between living and existing never fails to intrigue me in finding out, what does it looks like to be truly living. Given that most of us dislike what we do for a living and it is seen as a somewhat luxury to be fulfilling our real passions, makes it a very real issue.

‘Don’t live the same year 75 times and call it a life’- Robin Sharma 

‘To live is the rarest thing in the world most people exist, that is all’ – Oscar Wilde.

I saw a typical pattern in conforming to society norms, which seem to encourage staying in your comfort zones. This appears to feed into the sentiments in the above quotes, as living usually involves pushing through social norms and challenging the status quo. The meaning of living can be subjective and dependent on your wants. It’s a process that needs to be actively pursued, as life is not necessarily destined but created.

Living starts with a curiosity of exploring the world through our senses, as we breathe in life, it gives life to our souls. I am big believer in thinking should never be confined to your physical environment. The internet has made the world accessible to most and for me that is exciting because my audience is no longer local but global. I hope that my blog is the start of a movement to turn mourning into soaring through the love and peace of God.

It is my belief that adventure begins, when we leave our comfort zones and embrace the unknown. 




I hope this short read has been a blessing to you, love to hear your thoughts as always, links are below:


Best wishes

Highly Effective People Strives For Excellence

Hello I hope you enjoyed the last 2 special blog posts about Parentalk and Abuse. I felt it was important for me to use this platform to raise awareness on topics that could make a positive impact on future generations. This week is back to talking about life, inspiration, motivation and ideas-this post was actually inspired by a rather dysfunctional event. Every day we have many distractions, which can keep us from our destiny if we chose to be consumed by it.  Our dreams has to be bigger than our current reality to cause us not to sweat the smaller stuff and that involves letting some things or people go. The difference between effective and not-effective people is how we chose to channel it. Below is how (after the initial annoyance) I done it. Just to put this into context- the individual(s) concerns were unable to take accountability for their actions / errors, instead what I observed was a misuse of power and the slow demise of an outdated organisation. Enjoy...

A seemingly insignificant act has the potential to change the world...

I loved learning about the story of Reformation Day. The significance centres on how the Bible became accessible for everyone to read - historically the general public wasn’t allowed to read it, only priests or those considered anointed within the church were allowed to read it. The priests read the Bible in Latin, so for most people, it wasn’t even possible to read it. God’s word was entrusted into the hands of those in power, who were deemed qualified to understand it.  What the priests were teaching, was not actually in line with what the Bible said, as one monk, called Martin Luther found out. He started to read the Bible for himself out of pure frustration.  According to the teachings of the priests, believing in God seem to be just to be an endless set of rules and it left him feeling as if he could never be good enough for God. Little did he know at the time, he was about to birth a revolution that quite literally changed the world. This set him on a path of ...
