Enjoying the Journey
Life is messy. No matter how hard one tries, things do not always go as planned. One can try and try but things may still not turn out the way one wants it to. That's the part that stinks. Sometimes one has to realize that things won't happen the way one may have wanted them to no matter how much one has tried . Other times things will turn out positive but it will be a long process. I find it hard to wait out the process. Sometimes anticipation can make it difficult to enjoy the moment because I am so focused on the end result. This of course is not good. One must try to be patient and realize that life is a journey. Once things are taken care of there always be will be more things to take care of . One is never really out of the woods. There will always be something to anticipate. If one can admit that it is all a journey then it will be a smidgen easier to get through it all.

Life is a game that cannot be "fixed" but here are some simple rules:
1) You cannot win
2) You cannot break even
3) You cannot quit the game.
Oddly, the three major life philosophies in the West assume you can break those rules. To wit:
1) Capitalism assumes you can win
2) Socialism assumes you can break even.
3) Mysticism assumes you can quit the game.
I think this is a great post with a very relevant and important message that we all need to be reminded of every now and then.
Thank you for reminding me ;)
