I have to be honest here. I don't feel my day is complete unless I feel emotional to the point of tears about how amazing it is to simply exist, and to possess and create and experience my own life. If you haven't had a moment like that before, you may want to take the time to think about it.
Anything is possible. What's missing in the world is personal faith. And personal responsibility. Society and religion at large have taken it onto themselves to make sure its members believe that these groups hold the ultimate answers to a successful and worthwhile life. But what state is the world in currently?
The world works. But thats like saying a water hose with a huge gash in its side works in putting out fires.
the. world. barely. works.
Why is that, you ask. Well, most people wander about their daily lives, working to live up to the expectations of others or based on the views of what society views as 'necessary', whether consciously or subconsciously. Not really working well is it? Heart attacks, stress, road rage, obesity, high blood pressure to name a few problems in the developed world.
I honestly doubt that humanity would suffer on a global scale if everyone took 3 weeks to sort out what they wanted to achieve and who they wanted to be for themselves, and put that plan into action.
Try it for yourself. 21 days of absolute dedication to your personal values and desires. Wake up in the morning with nothing on your mind but what life means to you and what you will do that day to define your life. Sleep with no regrets, and dream of how tomorrow will be even better than today.
But they did not give up.
