How i spent my summer....

School sessions are over. You are on break. If you are in grade school, you try to have the best holidays of your life time. Each year has to be different because that essay has to rock ( i wonder who said that 'how i spent my summer' composition had to be nothing but the truth, even though a fantasy could be allowed). Well, you spend the summer doing what is defined as cool, so that your peers could see how cool you were or are.  Heaven forbid you don't even enjoy the activities but ' what would they think ' keeps you going.

If you are not in grade school, you're on the race to not care. You may have had a list of things you wished to do. You compiled this list during lectures and in between classes because maybe,  you were bored or shallow ambition overtook you.

Then summer comes. You sleep, plan, and sleep some more.  Worse, you sleep, and sleep some more. It's a pity.  Why don't you take time out and get to know yourself?  

Find out who you are and who you aren't.
Identify your strengths and weaknesses.
Identify things that contribute and those that don't contribute to your life.
Introduce things that add value to your life.
Spend time with those who matter.
Learn something new.
Feed your spirit. 
Nourish your soul and workout your body.

Don't ever look back at the end of a day, do a  'day - analysis' and find out that you have nothing to look back to and say ' that was a day to remember'. We have movies to remember,  songs to remember,  people to remember,  occasions to remember but do we really have days to remember?  

Someone once said : there are two great days in your life. The day you were born and the day you discover your purpose.

Personally, i pray every day to be the day i discover my purpose.  I believe i have what it takes and i believe i can do more.... but i have to discover it. What about you?

Live. Love.
See you soon and God bless you.

P.S. should you pen ' how i spent  my summer', i hope you smile and ask,  'where do i begin? '
