Flight through Fire

Anything worth doing in life is fundamentally difficult. In a universe that is molded by entropy, the chaos of all matter dissolving or becoming more chaotic within a closed system, it is a miracle that anything exists. It is even more of an accomplishment that matter has formulated itself in a way that life can emerge.

As extensions of the chaos of this matters unfolding we are in the predicament of living for a short while until that chaos sweeps us back into the void of potential through the process of death. Its a rather bleak outlook to the situation of life and death, a surreal one we all face.

In our battle of our lives, we get to choose, to make something of our time here or to take it easy and make it safely to death. If there is an afterlife, (I intuit and believe that there is), than what good is it for you to take the safe and easy route through this game. Similarly if there is no afterlife, why not go for the best that you can.

Time is a limited resource and to make great accomplishments it takes discipline, hard work and perseverance. You can become a creative master of the craft of your personal interest and leave a mark on the world that influences generations down the line for the better. You can make an enormous amount of contribution to the world, and how much more meaningful is that than to live a life with a lack of boldness.

If you are to take up a lifetime with a great life purpose, know this, you will have to fly through fire. You will have to be consistent in the face of suffering. You will have to bend chaos to your order and it hurts to go through the profound growth that is necessary for such an impact to take place. If you have the courage and the strength to take up the path, there is nothing more meaningful that you can do.

I hope to see you on the other side of the flame.
