Cause you cant jump the trackWe're like cars on a cableAnd life's like an hourglass glued to the table,No one can find the rewind button nowso cradle your head in your handsAnd breatheBreathe by Anna NalickA few days back, a close friend of mine was feeling particularly down. At one time, this person brought up a point that's lingered in my mind for a while. "Everyone expects you to be the freaking problem solver when sometimes you need someone to solve your problems." Its an amazing truth that sometimes saddens me. There are few individuals in this world who would sacrifice their time, their effort, their strength to help others. You see, in this day and age, kindness is rare, chivalry is dead, selfishness is everywhere. But it only takes the strength and the courage of one, to set an example that others may follow. Jesus set that example for us christians. And we're supposed to follow it.
But following that path is not easy. On the contrary, its one of the hardest things to do. The power to do whats right exists in each of us. Its just whether or not we do the right thing or we follow the crowd.
History is full of instances where people do something revolutionary, something going against the crowd. And that sets the bar for the ones to follow.
Thats all I needed to say. Partings.
