Reflections of
your Journey
By Carl R.

It has been often
expressed that life can only be understood in two modes. The first mode is
commonly referred to as a 20/20 hindsight concept and the second method is what
we call looking backwards and understanding what and where we have been.
As flawed humans, we
tend to see the worse in ourselves rather than the greater good we might have
accomplished through time and meeting other people. It is commonplace for
someone close to us to tell us what or where we really are or have been in
life. This reality check if often appreciated and understood to be a viable
link to those around us.
Reflections are often
blessings of the past. Through this process we see vulnerabilities and
weaknesses as we learn more about ourselves through the thoughts of others.
Never meant to
discount your prior misfortunes or mistakes, you must consider the fact that to
be human is to err and to err is to be human giving us the imitative to do
better as we walk every step of our journey in life.
It is rare that
reflections don’t bring regret or in some cases, repressed memories. Some
memories from the past are sad one and some are realistically unforgettable.
They can bring nightmares, torturous moments of misfortune or the loss of
friends or lovers as time spares you from loneliness but never allows you
completely free from the past.
Reflections can bring
realization of plastic or artificial life as you get a chance to evaluate your
existence within a most realistic moment in time. You can recall how you chose
your friends or if you allowed them to choose you.
Never given the gift
to be able to read crystal visions or interpret your hand like a palm reader’s
definitions of your life lines on your hand, you must rely on mortal abilities
to tell the difference between the past, the present and the future.
It takes a certain
ingenious faith in life and its journey to be able to read and understand the
paving stones laid forth for you to travel. Even with moments of complete
silence you can hear a distant echo of your mind as your memory reverberates
your thoughts over and over until you drown out the noise and separate the good
from the bad as you recover your historical years one moment at a time.
Moments are remembered
how you where you were mad or glad, sad or happy and everything in between.
Regardless of the overall or overcoming feelings, your can recall the sweet as
well as the sour times of your life with accurate recollections and actively
jot down in the tracks of your mind unwritten diary notes that will last
forever.
Forever along with
possibilities of passing them on to others as you share these precious moments
in the tone and spirit that increases possibilities of happiness or sorrow as
we suffer or endure our lives in retrospect in order to teach yourself or
others to learn more about life as it is.
Reflections occur at
any time your psyche starts to process your memory as words or sounds trigger
your mind. They appear to work best when in a state of solitary meditation or
in a solitary walk. It offers the greatest relief for the mind as it will
indulge you to recover all those moments and indulge in nostalgic and sweet
memories of life as it was before.
We know that the past
cannot be changed and we would be foolish to do so as we can surely ask for
forgiveness but never to forget. Opening the door to regrets solves nothing and
upsets the equilibrium of life and the tranquility it has to offer when you
focus on the right things in this journey.
Life is about friends
and lovers. Life has no time where it stands still and does not allow you to do
anything about the past.
The musical tune of
life can be happy or sorrow but it can be clearly heard by those who understand
the lyrics as they were written and expressed in a most expressive way.
Reflections will point
out how people like us think different and how others might do what we may have
wanted to do or have done in the past. It allows us to see how we agreed and
how we agreed to disagree.
Life does not collapse
by the thoughts of others. It allows you to hear the words or see the actions
to determine inward or outward movement of your heart beat and towards your own
existence and the reality you live with throughout your years developed through
your own moral values and priorities in life.
Most of all,
reflections allow you the knowledge that you were created by a most loving God
and that your existence reflects His creativity, wisdom and love for those you
hold close to your heart.
