I HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY Part 1.

(Steps on soapbox)

Stay stagnant! Stay depressed! Stay unfulfilled and longing for more!

But stay there by yourself.

There are so many opportunities in this world for self-growth and knowledge that if I lived 100 years, I could not soak it all in. It’s magical, wondrous and within grasp. The only problem is that we are content with what we have. Society dictates that having a middle class lifestyle and staying “happy” is the goal. IT’S NOT. If that’s what you’re aiming for I feel truly sorry for you. God did not put us on this earth to be mediocre. He did not give us a spirit, mind and body to be put to work, working for someone else. We have to have our own.

Our own goals, aspirations, divine reality. We all have a higher calling. 1) To serve God and bring glory to his name, 2) To create a life on this earth that is overflowing with wisdom, love, purpose and fulfillment. I would honestly rather be living on the edge, exploring this world and enjoying its wonders, than working in an office up to my neck in debt…and for what? So I can live in the suburbs “comfortable” and WITHOUT peace and an unshakeable joy?

Trust me, that life is not what you want, I live it now. I see how my mother is working everyday—at a job that she enjoys—but I could never see myself sacrificing my creativity and desire to be free for it. What do they tell us is “American”? Following the leader, co-operating with the government at all times, staying under the radar and feeding someone else’s ego until we die. WHAT KIND OF LIFE IS THAT?

YOU have the potential to change the world. YOU have the desire to be great. YOU have the creativity at your fingertips to create an entire world. But only YOU can make it happen. Don’t settle. Don’t succumb. Don’t feel pressured. Just because we are getting a college education doesn’t mean we have to leave and become AVERAGE. We are mighty and it is through God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit that we have the POWER to make our dreams reality…

Listen to your heart and not someone else’s mind,
Alexandria.
