Here’s a really good ‘rant’ from Kute Blackson…
“It takes courage to really live. It takes courage to really live with your heart, body, mind and soul wide open. You can live your life by taking from the world. Or you can realize no matter what you take you cannot take any of it with you. Then you wake up to what you are here to give and who you are becoming in the process of life itself. When you die. No iphone. No ipad. No Gucci. No Mercedes. No big house. Just you. Who are you becoming?” Source: All Of Us Die, Few Of Us Truly Live, Will You Be One Of The Few?

Sorry, but I couldn’t help but share this excerpt, too…
“There is a reservoir of riches within you. The more you tap into the riches inside, the more you are free and the more truly powerful you become. At some point you might fulfill every desire you can imagine. But then you will surely reach a point of dissatisfaction. How many cars can you drive? How much food can you eat? How much sex can you have? How many outfits can you wear? The moment you hit a point of dissatisfaction is the beginning of growth. You have outgrown old things that you thought brought you fulfillment. If material things were going to make you happy then we would be the happiest generation in human history. True riches are not material. You can have everything, yet still be poor inside. You are poor when you are not growing. You are poor when you cannot give or receive love. You are poor when you cannot see your own beauty. You are poor when you are dependent on external things to validate you. You are poor when you are stuck in narcissism. You are poor when you waste your time on petty resentments and gossip. You are poor when live in fear. You are poor when you live in the future and miss the beauty of this moment. At some point in life, beyond theory, you realize that you will die. Accept it. Face it. Embrace it. Then you ask yourself. “If I am going to die and I don’t know when, then how am I going to truly live my life in a way that is meaningful, now?”” Source: All Of Us Die, Few Of Us Truly Live, Will You Be One Of The Few?
