Have You?
As the title reads have you ever wondered how things change from time to time? Everyday you see, experience and learn something new. I've always believe no matter how well educated you are or how well versed you are on a certain topic,your never all out prepared for it until you actually experience it.It certainly educates you and opens your eyes to something oh so different.
Like the proverb goes 'Actions Speak Louder Than Words', talking less and making your actions do the talking separates you from being call the one that states to impress than the one who does to impress.Which One Are You?
Have you ever wondered why people whom have all that they desire yet still feel so incomplete? How about those who don't have it all? Sometimes we see things we only want to see and close our eyes to things we don't want to see.Take time and ponder,if you see things from two different perspective your likely to see things in a different manner and behave differently towards it.
Have you ever wondered why the simplest of things seem simple yet complicated? There's always ways of solving it and it starts with being patient and also thinking out of the block.
Have you ever wondered how things work this way and not the other way? Solutions are found in many ways and the best way means being direct and no short cuts.
Have some time off and think what if things were different and not like how it is.How would you accept it or counter it?
The above questions are some of the many questions we ask ourself at times or more knowingly before we head to bed.There's heaps more to observe and understand! So Are You ready to stand up and face the world?
