light and shadows

To me - life's two greatest meaningful goals are 'purpose' and 'peace'. I refer to them as the "lights" of our lives. People are in "searches" to find these lights.
There are three states people get into in these "searches", those who accept life for the good and bad, they bask in the "light".
There are those who are blinded by the "lights", they are overwhelmed and vacillate by getting too up or down in chasing full peace and purpose.
And then there are those in the "shadow" of the "lights", they can't see what is before them, they struggle to see the future, and keep looking back to the past, never willing to look towards the "light" that is casting the shadow.
That "shadow" is the illusion caused by the inflexibility to accept the "light", merely living in the "reflection" from the past.

I myself have been in a constant state of flux, sometimes being blinded, and in and out of the "shadows", but I try my best to make today as good as I can. We can save and plan for tomorrow, but eventually, whether we accept it or not - one day tomorrow won't come. That's why I tell people, "today is your tomorrow". #peace #purpose
