Have you ever known a person who tries to delay life as if the remote control was in their hands? Using life as if they determine time, space and every breath. Making no importance of the moment, present, past or thinking of the future. Life is made up of their opinion, their predisposition to persons, places and things that generally comes through media. Our society has cultivated the mindset of people to live life in sloganville. You know them , have it your way; just do it; expecting every thing to Snap! Crackle! Pop! meanwhile they forget, when you care enough to send the very best, life can be finger, licken, good.
We try harder to live life without feeling, no empathy or sympathy. Just going through the motions, then we wonder why those good old days were more alive and vibrant. For me that would be the 60’s through the early 90′. But I will say, those times were better because family mattered. Because respect mattered, especially with the elders. The village was alert , willing and active.
And while many talk about how much better it was, do something to make today better. Bring back the moral compass. Instead of becoming a part of the “just wanna do me,” microwave society start to live outside of self, put away the remote control on life and keep legacy in mind as each generation plans for the next, by choice or default, it will happen. Then turn from slogan life towards the real meaning of life because in the end, We answer to a Higher Authority.
