To The Horizon And Beyond

I believe that, every creature has its rightful place, and in its rightful place, it displays magnificence. 

So, have you been adventurous in discovering your true place in this world or are you like a ship’s captain in charge of a voyage to nowhere? 

You do realize that each day you can either pretend that your life is super-sonic, or craft it into a masterpiece.  So, if you are not really thrilled with your present circumstances, would it not be in your best interest to actually perform the necessary actions that allow you to live your wildest dreams?

Doesn’t your yearning for more joy and meaning demand to be heard?  And not just heard, but lived, in a zestful, exuberant and intense manner?  Well, to discover your rightful place in this world and to be one with your magnificence, you have to be brave and wise enough to acknowledge just how precious your life really is and do what it takes to live it vibrantly. 

It is only when you acquire the clarity to know your future intentions that you will surge forward on the crest of your present moments towards a life of true distinction.  So, what do you passionately wish to accomplish with your time and talents?   The answer to this question will arise naturally, when you cultivate a clear long-term vision of what your life really stands for, and how best to live each day.  Then, your choices will be consistent with what is best in you, as you stretch to the horizon and beyond.

Much as you learn a new sport, you can train your natural aptitude for being joyous and creative as a way of life.  And although no happiness lasts forever, you can adventure into new realms of thought and action by viewing what is familiar in new ways, thereby extending your enjoyment indefinitely. 

Just think how wasteful it is to be preoccupied in the presence of great beauty, in comparison to celebrating the glory of the moment.  And so, to add sparkle to your life, please know that it does not come from seeking fresh experiences, but from feeling the freshness of each experience. 

Your delight has little to do with spatial location or the tantalizing satisfaction that comes from fleeting pleasures.  True delight arises when you are one with the miraculous moment, in which the value of human life and the beauty of creation are revealed in their full splendor.

Since concentrated perception is often accompanied by feelings of elation, learn to unveil the mystery of a rich and meaningful life, especially in discovering novel ways of bonding with others to make your moments astounding.  Time and again, inspirational relationships have proven to be of great benefit to our overall health and wellbeing.  Deep, supportive friendships, healthy family relations, a keen interest in acquiring wisdom and making a positive impact in society, are indispensable requisites for happiness to thrive.  This is because meaningful and stimulating relationships are one of the few external factors that increase life satisfaction under almost all conditions.  By comparison, monetary abundance, professional success and leisure activities are of less significance. 

Therefore, learn to view others, not as they are, but as they could be, because from this vantage point, you help them to build a bridge from the present to a preferred future.  In this way, you reveal to others the riches they have yet to discover within themselves. When you invest in people and lift them toward their true potential, not only will they love you for it, but you too, grow immensely in the process.  So, inspire yourself to discover your rightful place in this world and let your joy enhance and make better the lives of everyone around you, by aiming for the horizon and beyond.
