Maybe it is just in me

I think the ability to be content is the best gift God has ever given to me. It prevents me from reaching for more than what I can take and it keeps me happy all the time because I am satisfied with most of my life save for the troubles and worries but well they come and go so no biggie, not like they are permanently draining me off my energy.

I think a lot of people destroy themselves by being greedy, sometimes overly greedy and the problem with being greedy is you don't and won't know when to stop. More often than not, people lose a lot of great things along the way of their route of desires.

Sometimes everything is nothing and nothing is everything. Sometimes being easily content is everything. Maybe I just want a simple life, a life where I am happy all the time and not a life where I have to stress over how to get x amount of things by when and waste my energy away thinking of all the good things I'll be getting if I have x amount of stuff. Maybe I just prefer cherishing what I have and leaving my fate in the hands of God, maybe I just believe that how much a person gets to earn / keep in his/her lifetime is totally up to God.

Maybe, I just am not interested in the blings blings and all the vain pleasures of the world, maybe I just want to keep those materialistic people away from me that way I'll always have genuine company. So long as I'm well fed, well looked after, have a good relationship with people I care about, have a healthy and happy life, having a decent job earning an okay salary, what more can I ask for?

Sometimes the vain pleasures of the world are not what we should seek to be hungry for, for sometimes all they ever bring are misfortunes, many years down the road, you might have attained most of these vain pleasures of the world, you might have already been someone significant, you might think you would then be the happiest person on earth, but is that true? Will you truly still be happy? What if you lose all that matters to you and gained nothing but vain pleasures of the world. Strip yourself of these worldly pleasures what are you left with?

I say no thank you to all these corruptive worldy possessions and I say welcome all the happy mushy warm feelings of happiness deep within that shines through me so ever brightly that they themselves are the biggest blingblings you've ever seen in your life!

Always remember you are special, just like everyone else. And then you wonder how are you special / unique when you are just like everyone else.

Well intrinsically, we are all different individuals, no two beings can be said to be perfectly homogenous not even twins but then extrinsically, we share the common factor of each and every of us being different from one another, with everyone else.

It's not complicated really, the notion is simply, while on the one hand each and every one of us shares nothing in common based on our individuality, on the other hand, we do share something in common in that we share nothing in common!

Inference from the above passage: Libby's bored and thus the reason for her rambling repetitiveness.

Quote of the day: With half the race gone, there is still half the race to go!! (whee!!)

"Sometimes you cannot believe what you see, you have to believe what you feel. And if you are ever going to have other people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them, too - even when you're in the dark. Even when you are falling" - Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom
