Putting my best foot forth......

Yes I am all enthusiastic suddenly. I haven’t been posting lately and this will be my second post for 2010 and obviously I want to continue it with all vigor and enthusiasm. It could be that I have a new way of looking at life. I no longer dwell on the past, but instead focus on living in the moment. I have surrounded myself with a positive group of individuals who brighten up my days and nights, and give new meaning to my life. I also have realized how amazing my family is. Sometimes we seek happiness in all the wrong places that we then realize that what we’ve been looking for has always been there. My community has been stricken with the tragic slaying of three men this past Wednesday. Everyone is still mourning their death, and scrambling for answers as to whom would want them dead? I see this and similar incidents as events that help us get things into perspectives. Sometimes we get so caught up living life, that we forget our true purpose.. I will not let myself down, and just continue to live each day without really seeing it as my last. As a result my resolution is mainly, “To live through beyond all expectations and acceptance. Life is just too short.”


Reflections………………
We’ve go on with life without realizing how much time we’ve wasted.
As a result I will learn to live in the moment, for I have today and not promised tomorrow.
I will remind my mother how much I admire her strong will to care for my brother and family.
I will earn my degree and grant my dad an early retirement and thank him for being a positive male role model to my siblings and me but also to his brothers and sisters.
I will thank Allah every day for all that his blessed me with, and most importantly for not giving up on me.
I will invest in a few organizations in which I am passionate about, for it’s not about quantity so much as quality.
I will work to strive in bettering myself each and every day.
Last but not least, I will simply put my best foot forth and make things happen.
