My life is a miracle.
And Tamara is tripping me out too.
Her birthday is about 3 months away and she’s all frantic about turning 29.
“I feel like my life is half over,” she said. I laughed so hard but I stopped when I realized that she was serious.
“What are you afraid of?” I asked her.
“I think I’m afraid of death.”
“Ohhh. That’s because you haven’t taken the time to sit and think about what happens when you die. It’s probably the fear of the unknown. All you have to do is choose a belief that makes you feel better about death. Let me tell you this story I read a while back….”
Once there was a doctor who was treating a patient in the examining room. The patient told the doctor that he was afraid of dieing and the doctor asked him, “Do you hear that noise?”
“What noise?” the patient asked, and leaned forward.
“That scratching noise.”
The doctor went over to a door and opened it. A big dog burst into the room and ran all around.
“That’s my dog,” the doctor said. “He has never been in this room before but when I opened the door he ran right in. He wasn’t afraid to come in because he knew his master was in here. The same with you. When you die, you go to be with your Master. How can you be worried about that?”
“That’s a good point,” Tamara said.
“And here’s your word for today,” I told her. “RESIST NOTHING. That means that whatever your biggest fear is, come to a point where if it happens, you know that you will still be okay. RESIST NOTHING. Embrace every thing. It’s ALL for your good anyway. All of it!”
I am so excited about turning 30! That age is so sexy to me. We won’t be in our 20’s anymore and everything will not be so stressful. We’ll have figured out more about ourselves and what we really want from life. I am so tired of my 20’s and all this wishy washyness, not knowing where I’m going or what I’m going to do. I think my 30’s will be so much better. Besides, we have 2 years before that happens, why worry now?
Man… Everyone I know who is over 30 is so…chill with theirs. They went through so many life changing events in their 20’s that the regular ups and downs of life don’t phase them as much anymore.
Man…my life has changed so much over the last 2 years..It can only get BETTER!
