Moving.



  Today am going tell you the story of John. In his mid 20's John lost his job, he ran bankrupt over the next month. After a few days later he bought a lotto ticket and won the lottery. He got so much money that he bought a house, a car and could afford not to work for the next 50 years.At least that's what happens in movies and God knows we love to be in John's shoes.We love drama, that's a fact. We do want results in the shortest amount of time. Unfortunately, in the real world, different rules apply.Big change happens not in a day or week but in years. 

Change is always happening. We see it as we grow up, flowers blossom, rivers dry up and rejuvenate, we see change everyday of our lives. Some changes are rapid while for others, we are less likely to notice they happen; but they do. For instance, the petroleum we use today originates from fossils of organisms that lived hundreds of millions years ago before the time of dinosaurs. Even slower is our universe which has evolved to this stage in 13.7 billion years ago there was no plan for life in the universe.

So yes we are changing, and most of the time we don't notice it. We are moving, whether that means rotating with the earth every 24 hours or revolving around the sun but point is life is dynamic. We are always headed towards a direction, either up or down, but we don't stay the same. Anyone who has been on a weight loss journey can relate to this. You always have your focus or else you dwindle to the 'down' direction.

We have goals and are probably working towards them. We obviously have plans but when plan A and B and C don't work it can be hard to know the direction we are headed. That is not the time to quit but to make plan D and E and F until something happens.  When we give up, we don't just stay stationary but we start heading to the 'down' direction. What matters is we keep the goal in mind and trust the process. Believe, there is nothing wrong with wanting things you can't see. Drama happens, the romantic happy ending happens, it will take a little longer but it will happen,  all we have to do is believe.
