Where am I going?
What do I want?
How long more?
These are questions that I could have easily answered when I was a bit younger. I could easily tell you my name is "Bliss" and this is what I want to achieve in so so time to come. I could even give you the duration I want it done... 3years...4years lol. Things use to be different back then with the magical fortress and life I built for myself...the fantasy was perfect.
I was so convinced that all I needed to do was follow the path...go to school...study hard...and things would fall in place just like that. I knew there was no time to waste, so I took to my books and studied like a mad girl.
I never knew life had lessons to teach....life, a never ending school where you learn practically. When you think you've got life figured out, it shows you another dimension to it...opening you up to new chapters and episode which you need to learn on your toes.
Life has a way of broadsiding us with lessons that we need to learn but would rather avoid. --- Craig Groeschel
Or just when I thought I have fully discovered myself, I find myself in a situation that shows me another part of me I never knew existed till that day. Then I am like..."oh! There is a lot about me that I don't even know". Be it good or bad, self discovery is one important thing everyone needs to consider.
Sometimes I sit to think about what I really want...yes I know what I want but how do I go about it? In a world filled with different personalities with greater survival instinct how do one survive? Connections in high places or being born with a silver spoon has never been my advantage but I still have to survive....the question is HOW?
One thing that keeps shinning each day is the light of hope...that glimmer of hope. The positivity we hold unto that things would get better sooner or later as we work hard to find our spot in this world...without relenting but putting more effort.

wise words there. I resonate with the self-discovery part. It's a never-ending rollercoaster for me, I just keep living and learning of life. I try to keep discovering myself every day, its an opportunity for me every day,
nice write up,
FYI - black and white images are my favourite.
I am glad you could resonate with me on that part....it may seem tiring at some point but it is an important thing we need to be open to. Oh...I like the black and white images too lol hence the title. Thank you for your words. 🤗
brilliant
You're welcome🙂
That never ends, if you are lucky and open to learning. Trauma and unexpected events are what make life worth living. I enjoyed reading your essay.
I am glad you did...thank you.
Moments of reflection like these will always come, we must focus on the good moments, regardless of what we possess we must rejoice for who we are and be grateful for the wonderful people who accompany us on this journey.
May faith always shine within you.
What is life without moments to reflect on things lol. But then focusing on the good things and being positive about life is all that keeps us smiling and hoping. Thanks for stopping by. 🤗
What am I searching for? What am I fighting for? These are questions I still ask at 48 years of age. I really liked the way you expressed the longing.
Out of all the passages I've ever heard along these lines, I think JL said it best.

Imagine the constant questioning of oneself from days into weeks then into years...it is never ending. Just when you think you got it figured you are open to more questions. Say a little prayer and hope for the best like you said is the best....being positive. 🤗
I am on the opposite end of the 'life line' from you and I believe you already know the great secret.
There will be good times and bad times, ups and downs. Try to find the lesson in each of them and you will be just fine.
Oh yes definitely, finding the lessons life has to offer prepares us to better. Hopefully, the good times are more than the bad times. Thanks for stopping by. 😄
Greetings friend, your publication is excellent, it is the reflection of the amount of books that you read with the experiences that I teach you life. In this life everything must be balanced and from each stage through which we pass we must take the best of them and discard what displeases us. In this way you will be strengthened day by day and when you get to where you want you will be a very diversified open book.
See you later, I enjoyed reading your post, have a great weekend !
I am glad you enjoyed the read...life and it's vast meaning cannot be fully comprehended...we learn each day.
Life is so short. Nothing is set in stone, and we never really do know what to expect, do we? It reminds me of a song by Michael W Smith called 'Hello,Goodbye'. The first stanza goes like this...
I am often looking for the "navigator of my destiny", then ultimately realizing that it is not me.. I am just along for this wonderful and sometimes cruel ride we call life.
Man.. You sparked my deep side today
That what is referred to life and it's uncertainties because you never really know what to expect from life the next minute...we can only hope for good things to happen. I am glad you could relate with my thoughts...thanks for your comment. 🤗

"I know that I know nothing" - Socrates
And he was rigth, the more time we expend learning things we realize we know nothing at all.
I'm in my early 60s now and I still seek answers and wonder what is to come. With a lot of life to look back on, I still look forward to what is to come.
You continue to be a positive force on the Blockchain dear friend. Such wonderful and truthful words... would be a wonderful #thoughtfuldailypost as well.
Found you in the Power House Creatives "Daily Rally"...

You said it all and I can totally relate. Interestingly when life wants to switch things up for us and we try to resist it by hiding in our corner we fail to grow, ive noticed this a couple of times, which is why we should embrace all faces life brings us because guess what, we can do all things through Christ. In this continual hocus pocus may we continue to find strength.
Thanks for sharing
Embracing all faces of life? Hmmm, I feel you shouldn't embrace "all" as some can be changed if you want. Thanks Zaddy. 😁
