100 Day Challenge: Day 14
Wow two weeks into this process already?
Seems crazy 
Today I didn't work much of the life development stuff per-se but have a realization about life and one reason I think it's so precious. Life is fragile, it is because it can be taken away so easily that life is so valuable.
This life is a gift to be enjoyed, not a puzzle to be figured out. As cheezy as that sounds, it is something that I am beginning to understand more on a daily basis. I think understanding that is helping me to put the "stresses" in my life into perspective. It's all wonderful, just simply because I'm alive. That's much more easily understood than to live I think. But I'm getting closer
I've noticed that my posts have been a lot shorter the last little bit. I don't think it's that I'm running out of things to say. I think a lot of it is that many of the things I've felt and experienced recently have been very personal and I wouldn't know how to share them or if I should share them. So I've left them to process more and see what comes back.
I did have an interesting moment of clarity on the importance of being congruent with yourself. Really it's the importance of understanding an accepting yourself for who you are. It's in establishing your belief system and living uncompromisingly by that system that we find real strength to weather storms that come through our lives. For me this is a big thing at this point as I can spout all sorts of philosophical stuff, but I don't really live much of it. So many things I see as great ideas, but I never work to put them into practice in my own life. Something to keep pondering/meditating over.
On the lighter side: Hope everyone had a happy Halloween.
I went to a friend's birthday party/Halloween party. I almost didn't go, I've not been feeling too well today. But I'm glad I went, it was a lot of fun. Having fun with a friend is always a good thing anyway He also told me he'd been setting the party up for a month. It really was a blast, lots of food, and great people to talk to. Just got to mingle and have fun.
I'll get a video posted tomorrow, so everyone stay tuned
