There are avenues in life that cause us to question our personal human existence. These avenues consist of gratifications that are highly sought after through pop culture and other ventures that present themselves to society.
Lately, I have been contemplating the real avenues that affect who we are as people. What is it that truly makes a person exist? We all are seeking some instant gratification in life...to present ourselves to the world as if we are somebody. I don't think that instant gratifications in life make us who we are. It is the journey that precedes moments of where our existence is known. In saying this...we all walk journey's...some a little harder than others....and some that we wish we never would have walked. However, our existence is sharpened and shaped through those journeys. Every journey has specific avenues that create and mold us into who we are. It is what we present to others in the slightest moments that allows us to exist.
Existence...is the simple smile that lets you know you did the right thing. It's the kind words that are said when you least expect them. It's the gentle touch that says, I'll catch when you fall. It's the moment where time stands still and allows you to embrace who you are, when you least expect it. It is found in the simple gift of giving yourself to others. This may be the profoundist existence of all. If you grasp life and give of yourself, selflessly, your existence seems to shine...not only before man, but before God.
