So many people ask, "What is the
meaning of life?" That's what people want to know. They want the answer handed over, chewed up and perfectly awarded to them. What if life isn't about the answers? What if, instead, it is about the questions you are supposed to ask, the lessons you are supposed to learn and the dedication you are supposed to feel. Life should be about the growing. As an individual you should grow every day. As a culture we should be succeeding. We study and study to find ANSWERS to questions that have been given to us. But when do we get the chance to ask our own?
I ask mine daily. I think I am a positive person because I ask the questions that matter to me. I ask the questions I need to answer and even the ones I am scared to. But I guess what I am trying to say, is that its never really about the answers that I get from those questions. Just that I can continue to ask more.
I want to grow every minute of every day and be more than just another paper cutout of the person I could be. I want to be the person I want to be. Every decision I make, I try to reflect that. I wish I could teach that. I wish I could teach how to question, what to question and what to learn. I wish I could help people step out of that 2D vision that they have for themselves and realize that they too, can become more, to become better.
Helping has always been my passion, teaching has always been my passion. One day I want to teach past the political answers that the world currently thinks we need to learn. I want to hit home the power of individual thought and answers to questions you didn't even know you could ask. To teach them to stop living on the paper plain of their life and jump off of it and take root on the third dimension.
I guess what I really want, is to help people help themselves. Because that's the only way they will ever really learn anyway.
