How would it all end up being…?
An old man sits on his porch gently rocking back and forth, perhaps just to ease the pain of old age, or… is this how he drifts off into his distant past, maybe listening to his fathers voice badgering him to study hard… or else! Or could it be the pleasant melody of his mother’s love and tenderness!
Don’t we all imagine that stage sometime of the other?- Those waning stages of our life, how would it be, really how would it be? Would we be happy or would we be sort looses of life? Would we be satisfied soul with dreams we dreamt that were fulfilled, or would there be unfinished aspirations waiting to be satisfied. Hopefully its not be due to fears or mistrust in ones own ability that lay collecting dust! Have we been at peace or did we wage bitter wars with who we really are? What about the ones around us did we mingle and live in harmony or were we in constant battle? For in the end it’s not what we have achieved but what we remember!
Regardless where we are on this road of life, this is something we need to think about… not to procrastinate and put it off for some later date, before its too late. And if for those that have already arrived at that rocking chair stage, now is the time to place in your rear view mirror thoughts that pleased you best. Regrets can never change thing of the past. All you can try to do is live in rest. So rock on, the new beginning is soon to come….!!

VERY cool image. Good advice about procrastination. But I’m afraid I’m the master at it.
Thanks!!
It is only the Masters that can turn it around…..
Yeah, I can do that, but I usually wait too long…
If you have realized it you have taken the first step.
Right…but the first step out of how many???
That all in your hands, or should I say feet!!!
you’re so positive!!
This is how I think and reason….. Tomorrow is really never there, it is all in the now.
I believe, I earnestly believe, that we make every thing with our thoughts. In fact try it for one week and see how powerful it is…
What you do is make a decision that you are going to think positive just for that period of time. If one week is too long try it for 1 full day. But you have to not allow any defeating thoughts enter and if it does enter your mind-the negative thought that is- you are going to change it to a positive one. You will soon notice that everything everybody starts to change for the better.It is miraculous and amazing it will BLOW YOUR MIND !!! TRY IT….
very cool
So beautifully worded and captured☺

‘Rock on’ is absolutely right!

Really cool image and such a relevant post. There’s a pop song out right now by Lukas Graham called “7 Years” and it touches on a very similar thing, except the singer is looking forward as well – to the time he’s sixty – & wondering what it’ll be like. We make the moments now (or maybe we don’t?) and those decisions have implications on the future, don’t they?
Thanks for writing a motivating post!
Wow, thanks for those amazing comments, I’m glad many have liked it!!.
