We were born to love. When we were kids, we were constantly told to be nice to others, use our manners and to share, but where does that go when we get older. Its like we get to a certain age and all the good things we’re taught as kids are thrown out the window. We are constantly judging others and bringing people down. We use our words for evil instead of for good. We may not even know the person, but with peer pressure, we turn into a person that we never thought we’ll be. As kids, we are able to love everything and everyone, but as soon as we’re able to understand what’s going on in the world, we turn into people who think other people are wrong. People are allowed to have their own opinions and thoughts. We have to learn how to love the same way we did when we were kids.
We were born to believe. There were times when we believed in good. All we wanted to see in the world was people helping people and have nothing bad happened. We believed that there was all right in the world. We wanted to see the bad guys in jail and wanted the world leaders fix all the problems in the world. We believed in so much, but one person can change that with just one action.
We were born to learn. Once upon a time, learning came easy and we were able to soak up everything like a sponge, but over time, our lack of brain power to learn new things fade and we lose the ability to pick up new skills that would benefit us in the future. Where did our focus go when we want to try something new? The first response is “I’m to busy” or “I just don’t have the time” If you want to learn how to do something, make time to do it. Take something away and replace it with learning how to play guitar or learn a new language.
We were born to be scared. Being afraid is normal, but sometimes being too scared can hold you back. When doing something that you’ve never done before is of course going to be scary and thats okay, but being to scared can intimidate you into not doing it at all. Taking a risk once in a while is what we need. You won’t know what’s going to happen unless you try. Being scared is a emotion we all have.
We are human. There are going to be ups and downs, but at the end of the day, we made it. Its up to us to make each day bigger and better then the last. We are all meant to live the life we want, don’t let others tell you how to do it. Its okay for you to stand your ground and say no. Don’t feel pressured. Walk away and breath. You are human. You are meant to be who you are.
