There will be days in our lives when we are blind because where we are going must be led by someone else. There will be hours we are deaf because what is being spoken around us is detrimental to our purpose. There will be moments when we are without a voice because our words destroy more than build. There will be seconds we are utterly lost without direction because it is the responsibility of others to find us. But it is because of these absences we become whole. Without them we are fragments of our choices void of faith, the sixth sense which connects us to our Creator.

Sometimes we are required to stand alone. This is because there are battles in life that only we are equipped to defend. And as frightening as that may seem, doesn’t the idea that we are given a strength unique to each of us for defeating that which attacks us individually also mean there is no collective enemy we cannot conquer when we stand together?

Monsters are real. They are under the bed and in the closet, in the dark and the light. Feelings such as rage, revenge, hate and fear create them every day. And the nature of a monster is to destroy peace, forgiveness, love and security. In essence, the monsters we create are the monsters we become. But the ones we acknowledge and destroy transform us into what they would have ravaged.

Life isn’t about fair or unfair it’s about purpose. And that purpose supersedes all else because it is connected to the soul. We are born with it and created for it. But that purpose is a lifelong endeavor, which ultimately means that we, at times, may perceive our lives as being unfair due to being directed in areas we feel we don’t wish to go. In actuality however, if we understood what impact that purpose has on humanity, we would be in awe as to how little of a sacrifice we were required to give for such an incredible contribution to the betterment of God’s creation.

Understanding your place in life means coming to terms with the pieces strewn about in your head. Finding that place means getting them out of your head and setting them in place. Realization you are where you’re supposed to be is finally seeing those pieces connected to everyone else’s pieces. Life is an unfinished puzzle with your small pieces making a larger piece which then adds to a whole bringing it closer to completion.

Sometimes we need burn things down, torch a swath and set parts of our past ablaze. Every civilization began in the wilderness and as each one grows it also decays as the decrepit and worn need removed and replaced by the new. Left alone, that which crumbles and no longer has value grows back into a new wilderness. But that which is razed to the ground leaves the opportunity to build a new beginning.

There will be moments in your life when you will need to be a leader; take the helm and lead others. But always lead them to the direction which calls to them. But first it is our nature to follow as we are followers first. This is because we must learn to lead ourselves even as we follow others. Never allow yourself to be led to the will of others who only follow their own direction or their hell may become your destination.

The problem with someone else determining your worth is that they have no idea how much has been invested in you by God. He values your existence enough to create you. Once you realize that, it makes the value others have of you seem insignificant.

Everything was once an abyss. What is comfortable and civilized now was once a dark chaos. It took desire, willpower and effort to bring it light and order. This is what we are tasked with in life. What is already tamed are examples that bringing light is always possible despite the depths of the darkness. Your life is your turn to tame more of the wilderness so those after you will have a place to stand before entering their abyss.

Fear and respect work hand in hand. We fear others when they have authority over us, but when that control is utilized to teach and empower us, it transforms into respect. Everything in life needs something else to make it complete. Alone nothing has balance. And without balance, harmony cannot exist. Fear is only the beginning of respect which was not nurtured into respect. The same is true with kindness which becomes progress when combined with direction and integrity which becomes honor when meshed with sacrifice. Seek all the necessary elements in your endeavors and the results will always be harmonious to all.
