Content and Challenged
I believe in every person's life there comes a point when you stop caring about whether people like you or not. Also,your social status and the amount of money you have aren't that important anymore either . I truly believe that the truest part of life is to be content and challenged. That's right, I did not say happy. Happiness in all reality comes and goes, it's fleeting. It is dependent upon every aspect of life that you are going through at that point and time. It's just small doses here and there that never seem to stick around when another challenge is presented. Now to be content and challenged, that would be a satisfying venture and lifetime reward. First, you have to be content with yourself, your past and who you are now. Having passions that you pursue daily will give your life not only meaning but more happiness as well, and something to make all the challenges worth while. Now with that you need constant challenge. Pushing yourself further with your passions and not only improving your skills and knowledge, but constantly pushing yourself daily, weekly and monthly. Having a commitment to your passions, your true loves in this life, will give you a constant challenge, wisdom, love, satisfaction, and the occasional bits of happiness that you crave to be fulfilled. As I said, happiness is fleeting, it comes and goes. I truly don't believe that you can be happy twenty four hours a day, it doesn't seem logical to me. If you are, then your probably on some really good weed and in some serious denial. The world can be a dark and painful place. It can also be an exciting and beautiful place. It's all in how you look at it and what you make of it. It's a matter of checks and balances, passion and drive. And keep in mind that everything in this life comes in waves and doses, and nothing lasts forever. That my friends is what keeps it all interesting and exciting. In my way of seeing this world you need to be content in your passions and if they no longer excite you, simply find new passions. Then continue to challenge yourself with it daily, with your new passion and grow and improve. Just don't think that one day you'll be happy and comfortable in this life, you need the passion and challenge. Without it, this life would be dull and boring.
