Waste of time

You know whats been on my mind....
The arrogance of us as people.
Sometimes I sit and I hear people complain...Even I find myself doing it at times.
Complaining about situations and predicaments that we have found ourselves in.
Situations we would not even have found ourselves in had we but listened to wholesome advice we received prior to the situation.
I believe in God ...and I'm sure other Christians can attest to the air about us that constantly requires that we wait on God's divine intervention. In my mind though, God being the creator of the universe and such has the capability to send us signs in all possible ways. We however, tend to discredit his use of simplicity. In our minds, its impossible for the answer to be so easy.

We always hate complex situations,yet we are masters of convolution.

Most of us have this inner drive-its crazy. We have dreams-BIG DREAMS. For some it may not  be the name in lights  or celebrity status dream. Sometimes, it may be getting to that point of unshakable inner peace.
However-I've just always thought..that we waste a lot of time.

If we were meant to make all errors on our own, I think we would be living in individual earth bubbles-left to do and try everything under the sun. HOWEVER-that's not how things work. We have eyes to see,ears to hear,skin to feel. There are things we do not touch because we were told that it burns or is really hot. Why then would we gamble precious time,trying to affirm a lesson that many have learnt before us. Lessons that state that whichever road they had traveled to reach such conclusion proved a terrible waste of time?Its never so much an issue when people make their own mistakes, it becomes a bother when you were thoroughly informed of the consequences yet went on anyway. That is where responsibility and accountability come in.


To every risk that is a "potential" reward. Potential,yes, because it may not always turn out that way.We must come to that point in our lives where we will be accountable for what we have done...and what we have failed to do.

Pining,worrying,over thinking,regret..are some of the symptoms which remain with persons who simply cannot let go. Letting go is hard,but holding can be a serious waste of time. When you accept yourself and accept the consequences as part of any decision you made for yourself,you will eventually move on.


I think that answers to our questions are most time right under our noses but we don't bother spend a few moments thinking through first,before we plunge and invest irretrievable assets,be it emotions or time. I know some of what I'm saying must really sound like the enemy of spontaneity, but thinking first can really save a lot of regret. Listening to sensible guidance can really save you a lot of self-hate .


Realistically, some persons may be at the point where they've already made the big "boo-boo".

Accepting that you're "perfect, yet flawed" will  really save you some time,so you can  focus and move on to bigger things. We all make mistakes. We have all, at some point in our lives exercised poor judgement-some poorer than others ,poor judgement all the same.

Essentially, the point here is to grow. If a sign says "do not enter". Maybe not entering may be the best thing. In that building,where the sign is placed could be where you meet your death,all in the name of speaking though;this is just an example. Many of us are hopped up on doing things we shouldn't waste time doing in the first place. Things that bring no reward-things that will not manifest into any sort of accolade in the future. Then later on in the future, we're scrambling for odds and ends to piece a mediocre future together.


Things were placed before us so we could learn from them. People say experience is the best teacher,perhaps!,but not when negative situations are involved.You don't need to go through the bad to know its bad. You don't need to do drugs,get addicted ,lose your family and kids and spend 15 years in rehab yourself to know the road is tough. Word of mouth should suffice.



I've realized that some of us are just desperate to get some "know-how" of our own. We want to know from experience but we shouldn't always be so desperate to experience certain things. All is not always as it seems. If in any case, you feel mature enough to make decisions that are completely uninfluenced by the supposed better judgement of others-be mature in its entirety. Hold yourself responsible. Nobody else.Do not complain once you have done what you choose to do, you did it to yourself. Don't throw more negative vibes into the universe-they'll be running to catch you n boy!..they run quick.
