OK .......... so i went to this Catholic Mass last week at the University of the West Indies..........
Yes me at a Catholic Mass ................. Don't ask .......
And the priest was saying that the Chapel of the University, was set off of the Main Campus (intentionally so), but that although it wasn't central on the campus, that we must make it central to our lives. That church is not a place that you have to make time for, to see God or to talk to Him, but it should be something that you carry with you. Something that is always there. Something you live.
And i found these words so profoundly moving ............ not in the nonsensical gibberish he was speaking about ....... but to real practical purposes.
If you want something or believe in something, you cannot "set time aside" for it. You have to live it. you have to eat it, to sleep it, to breathe it ...... To make it an essential part of your life.
All actions taken must be in congruence with your ultimate goal. It cannot be a part time endeavour. You must live the life of the person you want to be while taking the steps to achieve it. Yeah, we all want to be fit, more studious, more driven, organized etc. But are we living those lives, or we just sitting on our asses and wishing? Yeah you want to be rich, you want to be famous, you want to be successful ...... But name one step that u have remotely taken to accomplish this?!!
I will take heed of the old priest's words. I have listened intently and have vowed to live the life that he suggested........
From this day forth i will live my life as a Tyrannical Overlord !! .......... all in preparation for one day when i rule the world !!
