“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.”
St. Augustine
We are all travelers on the journey of life. We may have different stops along the way, but our destination is going to be the same.
Here is what I am getting at, whether you are rich or poor, tall or short, successful, or not, you will one day be no more.
The time between now and then, or even from the time you came into the world until then is therefore the sum total of your life.
So if I may get you to ask yourself this question, what is the SUM total of my life?
In other words, given that your journey has not ended, what do you feel you have done, become, and achieved?
The point of this personal inquiry is not to come to a conclusion or judgment of how great your life has been so far, but rather to look at the entire start-to-end journey as one of adventure as compared to going to an all-inclusive resort where everything is laid out for you and planned with minimal surprises or wonder.
Might you and I with the power of this inquiry become inspired to view our life in a completely different light?
They say that the universe is some 14 billion years old and here is you and I appearing in it at this point. We must appreciate and give urgent attention to our brief appearance at this stage of life. Otherwise, whether your life has been one adventure after another or just one damn thing after another as Mark Twain commented on “life”, you may not get a chance to savour it because it will be over soon.
The total of one’s life can probably never be calculated but if it is audited from time to time, the life we do get to live should be more Awesome!
Dear friend,
And with this, I wish you: “May the road to the end of your journey become more inspired, strengthened, and fulfilling!”
