Rock your World

Rock your World

Monday, February 29, 2016

I have noticed that most everyone strives in life to become and be recognized. Deep in thought today, I realized that the striving is great but asking for glory is not.

We have been taught all along that when we do something great, we get an award, a metal, a toy, a sticker, a raise, a promotion, etc. What if we all just strived to be these amazing creatures called humans and didn't ask for anything in return?

What if, indeed. Society is based on this belief that if we don't get recognized then it wasn't worthy. I do it too, so don't think I am casting stones when I am merely trying to understand this right along with all of you. Maybe life isn't meant to get us ahead but get us through.

I have no idea why any of are here but I do know that my goal is to be heaven bound at the end and that's the only reward any of us should need. God has given us the opportunity to be daughters, mothers, fathers, brothers, uncles, employees, and so many other beautiful things but most importantly He has asked us to be vessels for hope. 

Stop for a minute today and be thankful for the things in your life that are yours. Own those things, quit looking for what is behind the curtain and look for ways to be the best you. No awards, no titles, no glory.
