OBLIVION

Ever asked yourself this question, “what was I meant to be?” we have all wrestled with the fact that we might not be in the fields we are supposed to be. Ever felt trapped in time and space like you should be somewhere else in a different place living a different life? We have all watched a movie, seen a picture or read a book and we’ve said these word , “this is me. This is where I want to be”. We have envied other peoples situations, opportunities and experiences and we have thought that we could do more with the situation. If I had his money I would open a bar here. If I had her networks I would be so far right now. If I had his talent I would be the talk of this city. If I had her beauty I would do this, I would do that.

We always want to be at any place but not here. We want a little more money, a little more then we think that we would be HAPPY. Happiness is not measured by the material possessions since they can all be taken away. Happiness is determined by contentment and experiences shared with friends and family. Happiness might be brought by well earned success and a sense of accomplishment but it doesn’t end there, I believe that one is truly happy when one surrounds themselves with the right people. Its brought by accepting our situations and by making the best of it.

There so much you can do to make your situation better. So many times we are stuck in a rut, In a situation so grim that all hope is lost and there’s no sign of redemption but there’s always something to do. These are just trenches of life.

In such times its best to take a little time off. Relax a bit. Restrategise.
