There is a Swahili saying I heard as a child that if translated states that a good day is seen in the morning. All ye Swahili speakers can attest to this or correct my words. The tempo of your day is truly governed by how you wake up and what feelings you have for the day ahead. I recently had a feeling so powerful as to require me seek guidance from a higher power. I know there are atheists out there who don't believe in God but as one who grew up in the church and was schooled in believing that there is something greater, I would be a fool not to.
This fateful morning ,like most others, I woke up reluctant to start my day but did a quick self evaluation and realized a few things. I was going nowhere, I had just gotten a promotion but I was just trudging a long on my day to day duties without putting much meaning to my life. I wasn't doing anything I enjoyed and not even constant partying was helping. So I did what every man did when they are at their wits end, I surrendered to the higher power and asked for help. A few sentences spoken in silence and hidden away asking for guidance and a path. It is all too simple I know but that moment you place your trust in something bigger than yourself then you do have an easier time and stuff starts happening. Needless to say the one thing I asked for is the one thing I got. Doubters would just say that whatever I had asked for was an inevitebility. Say what you want but all I know is that what I have asked for I have almost always gotten whether in the short run or the long run.
People go to crusades and speak loudly about the miracles that have been done and how their life has changed since they joined a certain church but I treat it all as PR because just the same way the biggest deals are struck behind closed doors so should prayer.
I realized early in life that we are tiny, by tiny I mean relative to the entire universe. I would wonder whether somewhere out there in a star system far away there was a child asking the same questions like me. I am unsure about the parallel universe theories but I am sure that with the size of our universe then we are definitely not alone. Just to give you a concept, here is a video to help you out.
With this mind I have continued to try and see my problems as insignificant and easily solved, it isn't easy but you should try and if you want something just know that it all started with a prayer.......
