Human Flaw

There are certain flaws we find in ourselves that we can never grow to accept. The kind of flaws that are out of our control. Yet we still complain and whine, doing what we can to fix said "problem". We label them flaws when others might call them assets. Nobodies perfect and as obvious as that is, we all try to be better, if not perfect to our own set of standards. Influenced by the media of what the perfect person constitutes, agressively thrown at our faces by todays "cool". Criticism from our peers feed our insecurities, never allowing us to be truly happy with just who we are. But understanding isn't accepting, and even if we ever get that far into contentment, we always find something else wrong.

Fancy that.

Faith; or lack there of

I spend a lot of time worrying . I worry about the future and I worry about the present. I consume myself in thought; distracted by my own views I overlook what's in front of me. My lack of faith causes me to fear for the future. My lack of confidence lowers my abilities, unable to show true skill.

There is this book called "the Secret" an old method that states "thinking equals reality" if you want something, you must believe you will have it. Want to be a rich? Imagine it. The simple act of thought and the power behind thought makes your dreams a reality. This book provides examples of special individuals whom have used this method with great success. People worldly known are used in this book to give inspiration that anybody can do it. I personally never got around to reading it but I did get a brief summary of what this book entails.

What I got from this book was the simple and obvious act of thinking positive. Optimism, as defined in the dictionary, is "the belief that good ultimately predominates over evil in the world". It made me realize that my faith was all I really needed. I tell myself I believe in God yet I don't show the actions to prove it. My act of worrying only contradicts what I say so proudly. Assured, I know that God has a plan for us but my fear of the unknown shows lack of faith.

We take what we can from what we have, what we're given. Profoundly interpreted, with all the difference from one another.
