#1 Welcome to My Life: The World in 1 hand a Pile of Shit in the Other:
What's up folks--if anyone chooses to read this--if not what's up to me. Do ya like my title? It's the realest analogy for my life, hell life in general, that I could think up. It represents the dichotomy of being and the choices that we make. We can grasp the world or feel shit drip between our fingers. Well my friends, I'm pretty finished smelling the shit. At 32 I've come to understand that it's all about the choices that we make. I conciously choose to streach myself. That's what this blog is about--concious choice and love of self.
I didn't know what a blog was 6 months ago and I consider myself a writer. Being a good writer doesn't you're not ignorant of some things. Besides, I was concentrating on the pile of poo I was holding on to. I spent so much time involved in the wrong shit, so to speak, that I forgot about the world. To make a long story short I have been focused on the wrong shit since I left college and now my focus has changed. I want to feel like I wasted a lot of time but I don't feel that way. I believe that everything in my past has brought me to this point and right now I am exactly where I am supposed to be.
That's not to say that I don't realize my shortcomings or that I won't admit that I could have been proactive 5 years ago. I know all of that and I acknowledge it, but I can't dwell on it. This is a new day, a new now and a new moment that is full of possibility. I don't intend on letting moments pass me by anymore.
What's really deep is that I don't even care what people think. I understand that what I think is what's important. I hope people look at, read, understand, respect and respond to this blog but I know that isn't the most important thing. The most important thing is that I get it out truthfully and mark my existance with a contribution. This is just a part of it.
Back to the analogy of the world in one hand and shit in the other--Well my philosophy leads me to think that putting my hands together is my best bet. Philisophically the world represents my present and future. It is the possibility of greatness. The shit is my past. It is all of the things that I've concentrated on instead of paying attention to the world. It's the mess I thought life was. By putting my hands together I complete myself. I can't deny the past but I have to accept and understand it to have a full present and future. The shit is just fertilizer that helps my growth in my world.
