Without telling anyone, I began a little project 60 days ago. I began writing down the names of people whom showed care and love to me in one way or another. I also began to mark an X when they did something to cross or upset me. And as obnoxious as this may sound I made a note if I went out of my way and convenience to do something for another. (Shuddup its my project) At the end of this challenge I learnt that sometimes those we take most for granted loves us more than anyone else. I learnt that the amount of times you can be cross with someone can never be compared to the kindness they offer you freely. (MOSTLY Hur hur) I learnt that there was nearly never a time I looked back at what I was unhappy with them about and it suddenly felt small and juvenile. I learnt also that some people are truly just a complete waste of time and our lives are better spent focusing on those that brighten our light. Sorry but Im not God. You also learn a lot about yourself, an experience which so often eludes us because of the grand image we hold of who we are. Last but not least, I found a name that topped every person in this experiment. Today, I say contentedly I am happy with the man I have become. I look back and its amazing how different I am from the past. Dont get me wrong though, learning about oneself isnt a 60 day affair but an ongoing process for life. And with all my family and friends I doubt I would find pause to better myself everyday. Strength and love is a choice. Not an outcome. I dont think I would stop this project. :)
