Life Sucks then you Die

THERE’S AN OLD URBAN SAYING THAT WE USED TO USE WHEN I WAS GROWING UP, “LIFE SUCKS AND THEN YOU DIE!” EVER FELT THAT WAY? IF SO, MOST LIKELY YOU'RE BEOMG BOGGGED BY EMOTIONS AND DROWNING IN THE SAME OLD WAY OF THINKING EVEYDAY. So what can we do about it? One obvious thing is to change the way WE'RE doing life. In other words, if you don’t see the point in living, you’re missing the point of life entirely. If your life is totally running amuck and out of control, you've done something to let it get to that state. You made a choice or a system of choices that lead you to where you are now.  You may have even even started to give up on life. Think about it this way: If you’re driving down the road and you get tired. But instead of pulling over and resting for a while, you sthink, "Hey dude, I'll just set the cruise control and coast a while.  How long do  you think you’ll last? Not very long! You’ve relinquished control completely and what's worse isi that you've put your trust in nothing. to nothing. Unfortunately, that’s what happens whenever we live life without purpose, direction and personality responsibility. But there is an alternative… surrendering your life to a higher power. I’m not talking about some “pie in the sky” hoping beyond hope that things will work out, but a deepening of responsibility. You make a personal choice to align your life with the principal tenants of what you believe. You choose to cooperate with the greater good. But in order to do that, you have to give up your resistance in life and deciding to create a joy and a deep abiding trust instead of  life of pain.  In actualtIy, you don’t give up control. You keep control while following the plan, purpose and roadmap of the one to who you have surrendered control. Consequently, you ram a few less trees…. You stay  out of more ditches, and you’re more apt to keep your life between the lines.  So… are you doing that? OR does life pretty much suck right now?
