Sometimes life happens. When those daily, monthly or even yearly challenges subside, we are once again able to resume our schedules, our routines, living our lives.
For me, that means my hiatus from Active Rain is for the most part over and I can resume writing and submitting my blogs to this dynamic forum. Also I am able to travel to take photos of all the vacant land, dirt as I love selling dirt. In the last few days, I have taken over 100 plus photos of dirt here in Mohave County, AZ.
Of course, sometimes when we get back in the saddle, we may have lingering fears of another unforeseen life happens challenge. This fear is often “False Evidence Appearing Real.”
I am reminded of these words by John Wayne:
"Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway.”
Life is a series of continuing changes often with challenges intertwined. We hopefully learn from these changes as Ralph Waldo Emerson shared his wisdom:
“Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.”
Buddha understood human nature when it came to the fears embedded in our past challenges:
“Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.”
Keeping ourselves motivated when we face personal challenges is sometimes not easy.
Confucius recognized how challenges can stop us in our tracks:
“It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.”
These two other quotes also remind us about moving forward in times of struggles, challenges, just living our lives.
“With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts.”
Eleanor Roosevelt
"Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.”
Charles R. Swindoll
So saddle up, kick up some dust and enjoy the ride!
