A Seeker.....

The mood of the day is frustrated and better throw in there border line cranky too. I am surrounded by people that are choosing to be victims of problems and circumstances instead of solution seekers. There is always a answer to problems - it may not be the answer you want but still it is a answer to the issue which allows you can move forward. Why do people let issues own them and ultimately destroy who they are? I am not saying one has to be tough all the time cause it is only natural to have a bad times - I have days that life gets the best of me and I feel like a hamster running in that plastic ball going no where and then someone kicks that ball down the stairs. But where I try to differ is the thought process after this happens. The people that are victims of problems will blame their bad choices or any other problem on the ball incident feeling sorry for themselves and solution seekers will use the ball incident as a experience and learn from it so they can steer clear from the ball and will share this knowledge with others in hopes they learn from the misfortune and if they end up back in the ball they will remember to just roll with it. I know very well that we can be faced with numerous kicks all at once that leads us into a free falling spin leaving us feeling beaten,hurting, and depressed BUT we must not let that own us. If we let that consume who we are then the people that hurt us with the kicks win. See those people may win the battle that day by kicking BUT we win the war by not letting it define us. Thank your lucky stars I am not in a making a list mood or I would list my demons that cause me to seek solutions and back up plans.............
