Maybe You Can Do?

Have you ever wondered about what you really can do and what you really can't do?
 It is amazing how we write-off our abilities without evening trying.
 It is amazing how we abort our ideas before they are even conceived.
 It is amazing how we manipulate ourselves into mediocrity thinking that it is our best shot.
 It is amazing how we have forgotten how to spell responsibility... but we can spell 'SCAPEGOAT' without hesitation.
 It is amazing how we desire so many things, wish for so many things but never take a step to get closer to our aspirations. Thinking about it really, it is no longer amazing, but annoying.
 It is a self-defeating practice to throw caution to the wind and live like actions have no consequences and repercussions.
It is crippling to emotionally confine yourself in a cage; a cage too small that you can't even stretch your legs, much less fly. It is debilitating to play victim when you have 2 choices right in front of you:
1. you may act
2.  you may not act.
As a believer, i have come to understand that when you are afraid, your faith is deactivated. Fear is simply the absence of faith. So often than not, we walk in fear. fear of failure, fear of succeeding, fear of people's reactions to our choices and actions, fear of surprising ourselves (in a good way). Fear of this and fear of that.
 All things considered, man- up, grow-up and work it out. You cannot fake it until you make it. You are not a phony. You work at it until you make it. You keep at it even when you fail. You do not throw in the towel after failing once. New things are always associated with trial and error. As long as you are not breaching contracts, defying agreements, stepping on people's heads to get where you want, and as long as you sleep well at night after having done what you did (provided you are not ethically blind), way to go pal.
You can do it. Just try it.

Keep the faith. Share the love, and God bless you.
