If you are reading this, I pose a question. Do you also feel like there's more to life than just going down the rabbit hole? Many men have walked upon this cold, hard ground. There have been those that I would be utterly afraid to merely walk a foot in their shoes . One that "The Voice Crying Out In The Wilderness" declared, he wasn't worthy to untie the straps of His sandals.
Incredible men have walked on this planet. Those who were not considered such because of the wealth they acquired or education they obtained but because of the sole reason that they lived with the type of integrity and honor that normal humans just don't posses naturally.
I lose sleep tonight because of this simple fact: I am not one of these men.
I count my life as shame if I continue to be so complacent.
Life has a much grander purpose than just being and existing. Though, most of us only do so. Will we ever wake up and understand that nothing we do truly matters unless we are doing it for someone else?
In this age of freedom and independence, we have missed the concept that we are not free! You are a slave to whatever you hold closest to your heart. If that is wealth, education, infatuation or existing you are a slave tied down and bound by shackles and chains.
In this infamous search for what is truth, we find that science never gives us all the answers that we need to be able to lay down at night and feel at ease with the question, " What if I die tonight?"
My mind always turns back to religion. I've studied each one and concluded only one logically seems to be solid. The only infallibility with this is no religion is represented correctly from it's followers. At least the majority who would "represent" it.
So the teachings of each are what I must look at and in turn my life is what you must look at to judge correctly if I am making any ground in becoming a real man. Again I note, I've not yet learned a thing.
