YOUTH
It is a common saying that, “Youth has its privileges.” What does that
mean to you? When you were young
immortality was not just a concept, immortality was the reality in how most of
you lived your life. Death was not your
constant advisor. As a result you took
more risk, had more adventure, and enjoyed the push of adrenaline. As age creeps upon on you, you come to
understand that immortality is a myth and that mortality lurks around the
corner. However, to live captive to the
taskmaster of mortality is not fun.
Allow yourself some of YOUTH’S flexibility and spontaneity. All is not over until the fat lady sings and
if she is not singing let the presence of YOUTH sweep you under its hypnotic
trance and dance you off into the sunset.
Ask yourself this question, “What have I stopped doing in my life that I
really want to do?” Do you not do it
because you think you are too old or because you are afraid? Wrestle with the reality of your thoughts? What makes you belief you are too old? Are those beliefs valid or are those beliefs
fear based? Are you afraid to take the
risk? If so, what do you need to do to
overcome your fear, in order to let the adventure of YOUTH have its way with
you. Living in fear is a prison
system. Letting your inner YOUTH help
you escape your self-imposed prison system is vital. Make friends with your inner-YOUTH today and
start living your life as if you mean it.
There is plenty of time to get old.
You do not need to start today.
