Motions of life

Last night I couldn't sleep thinking about an old friend.Its funny how someone you used to be close to can just become a distant memory,is this what life is about? Meeting people and then eventually losing them you don't even get to choose we just get to keep whatever God deems right for us to keep.

As much as people say letting go causes less pain,memories can be more damaging especially if thats all you have. Is the person your dating now no matter how much you love them going to be around in the next five years because surely you have been in love more than once,the importance of a soulmate has taught me how to feed of positive energy...love is a powerful force.

I hate the night because thats when my thoughts take over with an overactive imagination like mine you need to keep yourself occupied hence i talk so much. Thought about my Grandmother who i had visited on Sunday few days before this book,i thought to myself imagine the memories she had made and lost,...and the people she has met and lost.

In life you are born and taught to fend for yourself and then you making a living as soon as your old you lose the ability to fend for yourself as you slowly return to the soil,whats the point of making riches if eventually your going to lose it all? Why not change lives that way your legacy shall live on even after your gone.

The size of our grave will all be the same,how selfish one can be we fail to be a blessing to amongst others how easily you can say no to a beggar yet u bow down and pray to the Lord to bless you with the finest things in life but you could not spare change for a person that only seeks food and shelter which you have in abundance and im not saying this to make it seem like im better than everybody I too am guilty of these actions.

Im sure there is people close to you who passed on and youve went two or even three months without even thinking about them, i spent the night thinking about past people ive lost in life dead or alive and thought to myself what good is life if your existence does not cause an impact were just as good as inanimate objects...surely we were put on this earth for a grater purpose that surpasses that of just living,our actions today can change the world tomorrow.
