The sun never moves below the horizon.

Have you ever thought of what your purpose might be in life (if you haven’t found it yet)? Are you in your life right now where you feel that it’s what you are supposed to be doing? Saying that just made sound like a damn commercial, not what I was aiming for. Anyway, it doesn’t matter what it is that you think you should be doing, just as long as you know in your heart you were made to do what it is you are doing now or want to do in the future–kinda like your calling.

Singers, like the popular ones that we listen to everyday on the radio for instance, just know what their purpose is… to sing songs that comes from the heart and to share it with people who might enjoy it. It can be upbeat or a slow tempo or hardcore. It doesn’t matter what type of music it is just as long as it captures your attention; or better yet, your heart.

Music can be very inspirational–it can be uplifting and it can help a person overcome heart break, or to fall deeper in love with someone with whom they are with, or to just get crunk with their fellow peeps, or it can remind you of someone you know, and so on. If you ever watched American Idol, you can see that thousands of people show up for a chance in the spotlight and to be the next American Idol. But, only one makes it. That only tells you that not everyone is destined to be a famous singer even how much they want it. Reason? I think it’s because they have a different talent that they need to share with people. We all are talented in something. That is something each of us need to figure out and find for ourselves. When one door closes, another opens.

Have you ever wondered that maybe we were born with specific talents and it’s up to us to find out what it is as we grow up? We all had dreams of what we wanted to be when we were children. It might have changed the older we got. And, unfortunately, some of us just lose our dreams to everyday living. People get too comfortable and just settle for what they have in front of them instead of trying to step out of their comfort zone or boundaries. Fear is our worst enemy.

How would you know what your calling is if you never stepped out of your box or tried anything new? I believe that everything in our lives happen for a reason. People come into our lives for a reason. Everything that we go through, if you let it, should transform you to a better you. You are being led to a door that you can choose to go through. Seek and you shall find.

Time is precious. It’s what we do with our time that counts. 10 years from now, I don’t want to be at the same spot as I am now or stuck at a job that I’m not happy with. I don’t want to be like a lot of people I’ve met along the way–the ones who didn’t pursue their dreams and is living with regret because they used an excuse to not go after what it is they wanted… and now they feel they are too old to do anything about it. (But me being an optimistic person, I tell them that they are never too old to do anything… unless it’ll break their back, then don’t do it. But if it’s a matter of the heart, then go for it.)

It’s what you are willing to sacrifice in order to fulfill your dreams, your passion. You have to sacrifice something in order get to where you want to be.

The road I chose is a long one. No one that I know of (until I met my mentor) has traveled on this road. It will test everything in me to the point where it will try to break me because I will be put under extreme pressure, as I was told by my mentor, but not in his exact words. The reason for it is because that’s how this occupation separates the weak from the strong, so he says, which I do believe.

I think it’s a sad thing when people give up their dreams for whatever reason and doesn’t go after something that will make them happy. It’s never too late until it’s too late.
