Momentum of mediocrity...

Life nowadays seems to fly by so quickly. Slow down a bit people and think what exactly it is that you're rushing around, working your ass off for. Some people say it's for money but that's not really true. It's for what you do with that money isn't it? And what are you going to do with your money, save it? Invest it? Buy some things? Have a more comfortable life? Those are all valid uses of the money you've worked so hard for but then some time down the track, you're gonna think to yourself, "Why DID you work so hard".

A lot of the things you bought you could really have gone without and you have a nice home, nice car, nice yacht...all well and good. And then? Too many people get caught up in the momentum of mediocrity, working because it's what you need to do, buying that house/car/whatever because it's about time you bought it, joining that club or this because that's what everybody else is doing and in the end you realise you don't know what you're waking up each morning for. It's certainly not for that pile of work that's waiting for you at the office is it?

Enjoy life my friends because that's what it's all about. Working hard so you can do so is fine and I fully support that. But savour life and each of its glorious moments. Be romantic with the one you love, spend time with family, laugh as hard as you can with your friends. Life isn't about achieving great things so you can tell people that you've achieved something. Indeed most people who achieve great things is because they're passionate about whatever it is they do and that inspires them to greatness. So be passionate about what you do and have a passion for life and stuff you like doing.

Enjoy that family moment when you can feel that unique unconditional family love. Enjoy that walk with your loved one on that moonlit beach, hold them close and thell them as many times as you want that you love them. Enjoy that gathering of friends when you can laugh without inhibition and be your true silly self. And enjoy that cold, miserable winter afternoon, when you're all alone at home because with a cup of hot tea, quiet house to yourself, soft drizzle of rain on the windows and a good book, that cold, miserable winter afternoon can be one of the best moments in life.

Love life people : )
