Up to a certain point
November 16th, 2022Its been a long time since I have written a new post in my blog. That simply is because I write when I feel like I have something to share not because I have to share something. I want it to have a certain meaning. A conversation I had with someone today lead me onto some thoughts and thats what I want to write about now. Its just that simple.
Life is all about exploring, learning and growing and that in the biggest sense of these words that you can imagine. Not only physically but also emotionally. Dealing with the things that we learn and what we grow into can be the hardest things we do. I say can because each of our paths are different.
Often have I wondered (and who hasn’t) why me? why now? The answers to these questions are more simple then we like to think but not everyone really wants to see it. Yes, things happen for a reason but I do not believe that the future is already written in details. We create our own future by going down a certain path or climbing up a certain mountain. Up to a certain point.
Up to a certain point? Yes because we are not alone in this world and we are not alone on a journey in this life to meet our futures. Just think about it. If one specific event had not or had taken place in your life, your life could have looked completely different.
The person that you are today could be a totally different person then who you where 10 years ago. Simply because of what life has thrown at you. Who we are and who we are with (or who’s with us) however is a strong factor in how we get out of it or through it.
Aside of all of this, “Up to a certain point” as the title of this post, was chosen on purpose. If you like to know why I chosen this title on a purpose for this specific piece, read or skim through the contents of the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy on certainity. It may help you understand my article even more.
