The "face" I see is "me"

How many times do we really face ourselves? Do we look at what we see and smile not from the outside but from within our heart, mind, body, and soul? Growing requires patience and perseverance to stay strong when its hard and recognize when a break is needed. We can only do so much every single day and have the will to stay focus on building a stronger "you."

Thoreau says it best:

"If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put foundations under them."
 

Our lives take so many turns that end up nowhere but how would be know the difference without the trial and error. I face myself everyday and sometimes too many times in a day. Often times ridiculing and picking myself apart. Until I realized that I am exactly where I need to be. I face struggle because God knows I can handle it, I also reep the benefit of success as a reward for my efforts. I often complain because I want perfection, when I in turn need to be grateful for what I see in front of me, success. Believe me it is easier said than done, I have a constant battle with myself on what is real and what is not.

What I mean by this is....

We are always forming a vision, an opinion some type of idea of what we think is right. But trust is what I lack in myself to allow "me" to let go. Let go of my fear and live life and to let go of my worry and embrace my happiness. Life may not be perfect but life is good. Perfection never made anyone completely happy, it creates boredom instead.

We can believe in everyone else but when we look in the mirror do we believe in ourselves?

"You cannot plough a field by turning it over in your mind."

What path will you build? What will you see?
I know I will look in the mirror and see "Me."

“The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.”
