~MEASUREMENT OF MY LIFE DURING THIS CLIMATE CHANGE SHIFT~....

Sometimes in life we find ourselves so busy with our day-to-day existences that we, as people, forget what the larger picture is really about. We get so en-wrapped in getting by and surviving that we forget the reasons we fight so hard to stay alive and we lose sight of the things, the countless, wondrous things, that make life on this planet more than just tolerable, but enjoyable.

You see, the joys of life don't lie in work, in money, or even the pursuit of knowledge, but in the reasons we invest so heavily in those things. All of the skills we have, all of the knowledge we hold and all of the tools we can use are meaningless unless we can use them to make ourselves more happy or make the world around us a better place. Free of the struggles for finding fresh food, water & normal qualities of life like having clean fresh air & oxygen, free from all air borne pollutants... If we're not doing that, then we're not living. Instead, we're dying, or rather, just waiting for death to come and put us out of our misery.

I've never looked a persons wealth or a woman's mind to determine how she's spent her life, I've looked at her smile. I've looked at smiling idiots & morons in the face and wondered, endlessly wondered, what they can teach me, what their secret to life is. For all of my knowledge, for all of my work, I've learned nothing about happiness. I've read hundreds of books, torn through thousands of articles and studied the things we intellects study only to find all of these things bereft of any mention of the word "happiness."

No one, not scholars sitting in their ivory towers or CEOs in their posh friggen offices, can teach you a thing about true happiness you can't find within yourself. The true measures of your life, the joys you feel and the things you achieve, cannot be learned from anyone or anything. really.. Rather, they come from studying yourself. They come from picking through the rubble of a heartbreak, they come from learning your own skills and abilities, but, most importantly, they come from searching your heart, digging deep within yourself and finding the strength to overcome your obstacles, big and small, and finding the will to be come something greater than the sum of your parts.

Any one can point to a pile of money, any one can spout tomb's of knowledge and any one can do the grind just to get by, but only a select few, a rare, beautiful few, have what it takes to search themselves, stare at themselves in the mirror and truly like what they see. Life isn't measured in the mind, the wallet or the bank, but in the heart. It's measured in love for oneself, for others and for one's principles. It's measured in the guts to stand up for what one believes, the willingness to take the chance and reach beyond what mortals are supposed to achieve and the strength to challenge one's own demons and slay them all one by one.

Life is truly a beautiful thing, but only if you start measuring it the way it was meant to be. If you let society, if you let your family and if you let the world tell you what your goals should be, how you'll be the happiest, then life, the greatest thing you have, will be meaningless, just an existence between birth and death of no value to any one or anything.

That is a fate I will not stand for nor a destiny I will ever beat a path toward. My life is my own and yours is your own. You should live it as such and not let the measuring stick of others be your guide. Others may have more money than you, others may be smarter than you, but, if you control your destiny, follow your dreams and open your heart, no one will ever be happier than you.
Because, even as the money others have saved is spent and the knowledge of the wisest men is turned to dust in the winds of climate change, the joys you had, the joys you brought others and the joys you left behind will still be thriving strong, echoing, for all time in the universe that surrounds us all.

If you measure your life accordingly, you'll see what I mean. If you don't, well, I'm still gonna go about my life, which I'm going to continue living the way it was meant to be lead. My way....but maybe with you all beside my heart for eternity as your part of the journey,I'm mirrored in you,no I think the opposite,that I show you your own mirrors reflected back at you..& I'm grateful for this as it makes me the good soul Seer to use my given gifts, able to see what you all are doing to yourselves,and allows my Raven life guide to show you all the real truths on how to change yourselves...

So I THANK-YOU!!...
