The pursuit of happiness, it may not always grow your bank
account, nor give you the tones of friends you might want in life but it will
make you a memory millionaire. “Paper
chase” and “grind” are common
words, the frustration and the face wriggle vivid on the ones who loud the
terms. Often we forget to take a moment and enjoy the world. We forget the
power of a smile and never remember the purpose of the presence.
Take a moment and smile. As child you smiled naturally; at
least to your mother, you gave it out freely and the world was a field play for
you at any glance from your sleep. What did change? Grind and paper chase? As
a baby when other reacted to your joy, it brought out the best of you. You
became gayer and a thing or two went your way.
You are no longer a toddler and life has caught up with you …
an excuse you may want to give yourself. In the words of Bernice Johnson an
American congress woman who always wears a smile on; “Life’s challenges are not
supposed to paralyze you; they’re supposed to help you discover who you
are.”
The paper chase and
grind: you let your traits fade
because of them. Your account might have grown but deep within a missing link
to connect is felt. Your happiness was infectious, your curiosity and zeal to
find bliss made people to love you more. Your toddler habits are your secret
weapons in trade. How people craft with you is highly dependent on how they
perceive you.
As you grew you had to possibly wonder how people saw the
world different from you. Your curiosity drew you from your path to find out
what makes the heart of others beat faster. Soon you were encrypted into their
mysteries. Paper chase and grid was the song you sang too. Your
defining character became gray: All this for the pursuit of happiness.
Don’t live down to expectations; this is how the purpose of
presence dissolves. Go out and do something remarkable, something fulfilling
and something benevolent. Money comes and most often goes; the demand will
always be higher than the supply. But the memories cherished in creating it
will be a remarkable impact to your zeal in meeting the supply.
Wealth is developed over time so is strength and will. Don’t
limit thy happiness in pursuit of the three. Own up to your mistakes,
prioritize your health and know your worth… Tomorrow is never known live to day
for tomorrow and not yesterday.
Get
out and live the most joyful, authentic life you possibly can.
