The Sea Of Life

Life is full of opportunities. But many of us are afraid to take a chance. We are like sailors on a sinking ship in a storm. We would rather go down with the ship than plunge into the sea in search of opportunity.

There are many reasons for this. The greatest is fear. We fear to do something new, to have a different experience from the one we currently have. In our minds, we imagine even greater horrors than our present miseries. We then freeze up and sink into deep gloom. Our negativity has defeated us.

The greatest challenge for all us is to believe in ourselves. We must not let the fear of failure prevent us from taking new challenges and experiencing new things. In each of us is a desire to dream. To dream of better things and a better life. This is well within our power if we only place trust in ourselves. Our lives are like boats on a great sea. There will be storms, and there will be periods of calm sailing. Our goal is to avoid the storms or pass through them as quickly as possible. In our minds should be the next port of call, a goldmine of delight for the adventurous sailors of life.

Take chances in your life. Look upon new opportunities as a blessing, a chance for you to improve yourself in the stormy seas of life. With belief as your sail, the port of your dreams will soon be in sight.
