A Realization

You know those times in life where you just... realize something important? I am starting to open my eyes to what really is important in life. The other day, I felt as though my fate was staring at me right in the face, and I didn't want it there. I wanted it to fade away, but it had been for too long and I knew that I needed to deal with it. Life is full of choices, and it is hard to realize that one little choice really can affect the rest of your life. I narrowed my path the other day. I know what I needed to do, and although it was hard, I know it was worth it in the end.

I needed to realize that everything that can ruin my life, or doesn't fit into what my ultimate goals are, then it needs to be eliminated. All those bad habits, friendships and choices need to be weeded out. Although we may like those things, it is won't lead to where you thought your life was headed.

On top of all these thoughts, I watched a movie called "Pay It Forward" which is about a kid who had a goal to change the world by helping 3 other people. And by helping those other people, he expected them to "pay it forward" and help 3 more people. I think it is so important to live your life for the good and not to be selfish and waste your life on yourself. I want to be like this child, who had the love in his heart to sacrifice his life for his friend. I do not wish to die, but I do wish to help others with the same love in my heart. So, I challenge everyone to do something good for other people. Hoping that maybe we too, can change people's lives.
