Today, I am featuring a creative piece by a beautiful woman, Alexis Rakun, and I can’t wait for you guys to read it!
You Have Greatness Within You
As “cliche” as this may sound. It is true. I don’t care how many times you have to see that quote before it actually sinks it. So yeah, maybe I’m a little fired up because I just watched Wonder Woman but this is something I am a firm advocate of. I am constantly pushing, motivating, and trying to inspire the people around me and on social media daily. We all have our low points, this completely includes me, but it is the high points that we are talking about now.
One thing I don’t understand about people is how they can look at someone living a life or achieving something they want yet don’t believe they could. Anything is possible. When we believe in something passionately enough, we quite literally, begin to create it. Now I understand the fact that not everyone wants to be a hero or a leader or achieve something great for their people but maybe the time has come when that should be normal. Why is that not normal?
How will our miraculous species survive themselves and this Earth if this does not happen? So I am sorry to be blunt but… DO SOMETHING GREAT. DO ANYTHING. Even if it is as small as feeding the homeless every Sunday or volunteering at an Old Folks home. If we all do these acts then we may actually have a fighting chance at saving ourselves and our unspeakably miraculous planet.
The selfishness of our society MUST END. When I first started writing blogs I would carefully watch what I typed but I honestly don’t care anymore. I will voice my opinion. I will speak for those who care. Those who dream. Those that have the courage to believe in something greater for themselves AND for humanity. I am so sick of zombies surrounding me. Everywhere I go. Fucking zombies. Makes me think about the song “Zombies” by The Cranberries…give it a listen. (I am actually trying to learn that song on guitar right now lol).
Anyways, we are only here on this Earth for a moment. A precious, fleeting, wondrous – moment. It is all we have right now. Don’t you want to develop yourself to be the greatest you can be so that you may inspire others to do the same? Can you imagine how fulfilling, how enriching, how helpful, how hopeful that would leave you AND our Earth. I am a big thinker…and I hope YOU are too. They are the only ones that accomplish anything truly life changing… Why couldn’t you?
It isn’t about your I.Q., your money, biology, your past, your family, your circumstances, your degrees…
It is your willpower, your purpose, love, compassion, resilience, vigor, dreams, mentality, and imagination that will take you there… invest in some books. An inspiring movie. $20 could change the whole direction of your LIFE. Imagine that.
Much love and don’t be a zombie,
