Falling to Your Death
A short story to evaluate how much you value your life.
Imagine you're standing on the edge of a bridge.
Feet and body balanced perfectly upon the handrail.
Now imagine you lean forwards, still perfectly straight, as though falling to your death.
What thoughts would be your thoughts? If the significant moments of our lives flash before our eyes during the time it takes to reach our destination below, what memories would we see? If you had 30 seconds to recall your life's memories which ones would be recalled? After 30 seconds which ones have you left out, which ones needed to be in with the others? Start your 30 seconds again.
And what about the memories from when you were a child, be them good or bad they were significant enough to make you who you are today.
They must be added too! If this is to be the last ever memory compilation of your life, the most important bits must be included! As your falling to your death and remembering all the good things in your life, the bad, the happy and the sad, just as you've made that decision to just...
let go, what will be will be, as you feel your body slump into weightlessness you realise that, looking through all of the memories of your life, that actually, 'my lifes' not so bad'.
Not once did the thoughts of 'Oh this bill still hasn't been paid', not once was there thoughts about 'Oh thank God I dont have to deal with that anymore'.
Once you surrender all and everything you begin to realise that anything can be resolved.
When your honest with yourself you gain courage from yourself and when you have courage you have the first steps to a resolve.
There's someone for everyone in every aspect of life.
Help is at every turn if you just have the courage to ask.
As the ground draws nearer and faster in time with your thoughts thinking I actually like my life, that 30 second movie clip wasn't so bad.
There's so many things I need to add! As the bungee cord snaps your body back up you sore straight up in the opposite direction.
With your hands stretched out wide in the air and your face turned up to Heaven; you scream out at the top of your voice, "I LOVE MY LIFE AND ITS ONLY GETTING BETTER!" Life is a beautiful blessing and a once in this life time journey.
We need to live in the moment to be able to appreciate each moment lived.
Worry is a creation we made for when we don't know what to do.
When once you can still you mind back into its natural balance, the answer to any problem will become clear.
And to find that balance from within is when you have no doubt that your definitely Smiling From Within -Value every moment, they all count.
