That day you realise, you are more of the quiet type

I am a big idealist, sometimes over-optimistic about life, the world and with a strong will to help others around me. Still, I just realized recently (in fact a few minutes ago), that I am more of the quiet type. This sentence in the whole may seem to mean nothing, but for me, it means everything.

Have you ever seen those people in a group that are the most seen? Each time, they integrate a project, they become the leading hand, the voice of it all even though sometimes (and sometimes only) there are not the ones achieving the most of it. In the project, you would have some other persons, who can eventually be the lead or not, but don’t seem to be.

Clean off your mind,now!

Have you ever felt oppressed? Have you ever felt there was too much running in your mind? Did you ever feel that you had too much to do and had no clue where to start?

Living your life like a saga

Everyone in the world (ok, that may be too much but not so sure), so everyone in the world including you, reading me, right now (yeah, YOU) so everyone knows Dallas or The Bold And the Beautiful (also called Amour Gloire et Beauté or Top Model).

What does those two TV Programs have in common?  I consider them as sagas, contemporary sagas of well-known families,  characterized by big changes, unexpected adventures, and it just goes on and on and on…and somehow, the public keeps watching them. Let us hold, to this last sentence, « the public keeps watching them » that supposes there is some tension, novelty or expectation in there.

So, based on this, imagine you decided to live your life like a saga? What if, you wrote the story of your life just like a saga? More importantly, what if our lives were already sagas and we just did not realize it? Continuer de lire « Living your life like a saga »
