Responsibility

Every single day we are consumed by our day to day responsibilities, jobs, tasks, technology, everything. Can we just take a step back and look at ourselves, look at everything around us? It’s all these marvelous works. Change is happening everywhere, every minute, all the time. Look at everything around you. Stop stressing out over things that need to be cleaned, things that are due, things that are just waiting to be taken care of. Those things can wait.

We weren’t put on this earth to be little puppets for a show. We were put here to love and to care. We were put here to understand and to guide. We were put here to learn and succeed. We were put here to create a passion and desire. We were put here to create these magnificent things, magnificent beings, magnificent futures for ourselves. If we were put here to stress over everything and be SO completely consumed in responsibilities, we would have just been placed on another planet, at another time, with absolutely no light of a future for ourselves.

Responsibility can wait. Learning to live can’t.
