This might sound so familiar; but I question so much "Why am I waking up this very morning? As if I were meant to do something special or perhaps I myself maybe special."
It's that same old recurring life. We wake up, go to work, come home and prepare for the next day. We work to pay our debts; our credit cards, and our bills. Life feels so "Xerox", we're all of copy of a copy of a copy. Sometimes I recall that scene that I saw in the theater, the movie was "Wanted", it was when he put his card in the atm and realized he had less than twenty dollars in his account. He must have been having a bummed out day.
Is this what we are? Robots? Machines that do what we have to do to get by? Contemplating things we think matter though they do not? I've known so many people rush through life's river trying to grab hold of the rocks only to create a dam to control it's directions. The inevitable fact falls upon them when their dam breaks and anarchy succumbs to them as they are rushing once again with the river.
"Got with the flow." That's been around for so long but do we honestly get the gist of it?
Watched the "Dark Knight" for possibly the first time since I saw it so many many times while it was in theaters. What strikes me most about movie is when the Joker talks to Harvey Dent while in the hospital. He explains that he's just there to show the "schemers" how pathetic it is that they try to control their little worlds. Taking that out of context and placing it into a less sociopathic humor, it honestly does make sense.
How do we prevent ourselves from being "schemers" and just trying to live? Not worrying about things that will come and things that will go. Time will pass and slip through our fingers while we work and try to pay of that one amazing debt, but are we grabbing some of that time to take in some fresh air and just live? Not be a "Xerox"?
