There are so many things I always wanted for myself. Things I never was able to grasp. Things that I'm never going to be able to grasp. In life we all have dreams right? You hear people talk about how they had a vision and went for it and accomplished it. Does that mean that others who went for it and didn't accomplish it didn't try hard enough? I think about people that have what they desired. A home, a great job and a loving family. When you asked how did you get that. The response is always hard work. Never does someone say, my parents paid for education and gave me the down payment for my home. Never do they say I'm in a loveless relationship, my spouse cheats on me and I wish I could get a divorce but I feel stuck. Never does someone say I'm in debt up to my eyeballs because I was given everything in life and I don't know how to manage my finances. Nope never.
I think about Donald Trump and how he said he started his "empire" with a "small" gift of one million dollars from his dad. A small gift. I'm telling you right now, if I had a small gift like that I'd like to think I'd be doing pretty good in life too. You see we're all handed a deck of cards. Those cards contain everything in life from emotional stability, strength, wisdom, finances, status, relationships, issues, I mean the list goes on. Nobody has a perfect deck. Some peoples cards have worn edges, colorless kings and queens and some are missing cards all together. But it's what you do with that deck that determines your outcome. Sometimes though the deck is stacked against you. Then what?
I guess at the end of the day, you just keep living and hoping that your cards will be the perfect ones to be dealt in the poker game of life.
