LIVING YOUR LIFE AND NOT JUST IN LIFE

  LIVING  YOUR LIFE  AND NOT JUST IN LIFE 

Life is good , life hurts , life is bitter , life is beautiful, life shakes for you , you stand with life . life is simply what you make out of these contradictions . Its true we experience a lot in life that makes us want to quit its existence , we see life as a world on its own and  with our souls as contents of  this world . we omit the fact that , life exist because of our existence , life exist because we exist , the true definition of life comes from our consciousness about the existence of something we are engulfed in which is life  .


 However , talking about times when we just go blank , we get confused , when we feel like we are just going in and out of life without a specific pattern to follow , sure ! that’s when you realise you are getting no lemonade from the lemons of life  . what then do you do ? 

Frequently in life , we make the mistake of giving  the total  control of our lives to believes , myths , relationships , negatives and so on . we just find an institution in our life that we are to rely on normally for frequent consultations and just get lazy and give them the ultimate role to play in other aspects of our lives outside their jurisdiction  and that’s where the problems start. 

We begin to find ourselves going blank once in a while , we start missing  track , the island of succour and control begins to drown . we had become too controlling of the outcomes of life and at a point , we just feel ,we cant do this anymore . we go bitter , we drop our pens , we leave our foots bear , we apply the watery pomade , we become selfish , we get judgemental , we hurt , we grief and finally we find our balance gradually by giving another aspect of life , power over our living . 

However , its actually good to have a planned purpose , it feels  good to be lazy , it good  to hold on to one belief  for succour , what is just not good is to ‘ live in life and not live your life’.
When we learn to live in life , we discover we control whatever we get from life, we create the life we want  . 

HOW DO YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE AND NOT JUST IN LIFE 

I am sure we all know the feeling of life revolving around us as a singular soul. We get the feeling , we know it and we live it , every individual on their own existence feel the chapter of life has their name as its topic , even though we have some little stories that have other human contributions in its pages . 
This theory serves as a little opened lope hole of knowledge that we make life what it is and what we feel and think about often can live to be a reality as long as  we shot ourselves out from every possible oppositions to this belief  .

"Life is what we make it , our random thoughts are what the universe brings back to us . ''

Another way to live life is to control our efforts irrespective of  how lazy we could get through our journey in life. Give every aspects and elements of life their balance , by  understanding them , relating with them based on their basic function , by being in control of the access they have to your life . Never let them be in control of your existence and your delegated effort to influence what happens in your life. As long as this is effected , you begin to life your life rather than just living in the life you are given .
 Everything that comes to us always needs our efforts before they happen to us . Be it spirituality , negativity , progress or obstruction , either it is good or bad , our effort is always needed to put a stamp on their effects on us . we hear often from the religious aspects of life that sins begot sufferings . which simply explains that suffering don't just come to us , we have to show consent through sin. 

Lets also examine our normal race towards  achieving a goal , we in a major way determine how far we go in the race and how it results to success or not by how far we are willing to go . We decide if  we are going to listen to the barks of the dogs that scare us on our way or we are just going to keep on going . 

you determine how you look by what you eat , you determine where your liberation comes from ,by the energy you channel through faith into that particular thing . you determine which god you serve from what you constantly feed your faith, believes , thoughts and hope to. 

''You are what you chose to be.''

  ''You are what you accept to be ''

If you were called a cat which you are not , 

but you accept that you are one 

because someone you belief so much in , says you are , you tell your brain you are one , it records it over and over again as you repeat and accept that you are one . When you see a cat , you remember you are one and you observe it more than the usual way you do before , you later react close to what you saw unconsciously and you say to yourself again "I am a cat !that's why i am like this !'' and that's how you gradually start bringing into reality the habits of a cat  just because you fed your brain with something you were told too often .

 It is all psychology , once we accept a notion, our everything works towards that notion . So belief today , that you can life the life you want if you control the life that is given to you . Make use of the elements of life through their basic functions , don't be lazy ,know you control what comes to you and that way , you will only live the life you want .
