Journey in Sight

So, I figured I'd combine three of the challenges, while I could provide depth to each individually, I think combining them would have more impact. With that, this discussion will focus on three healthy habits, five years from now, and education, ignorance being the opponent.

The funny thing about education is, to understand it's importance, you must educate yourself. What I mean is, our survival and our existence as intelligent creatures depend on obtaining and increasing the amount of information we can gather. The less information we have, the more difficult it is for us to survive. With education comes understanding, and understanding invites peace of mind. Ignorance is bliss, temporary still because all good things must end, but knowledge awards insight, a journey to peace everlasting.

My quest for insight is probably the only healthy habit I have. I meditate daily and search my thoughts to understand what it is I hope to accomplish and also to strengthen my mental fortitude. I may not be the most intelligent individual among my peers, but I am smart enough to surround myself with those who can provide insight and perspective. I do, however, strive to develop healthier habits, educating myself on these practices. One of which is proper grooming. I want to take better care of my hair, nails, and skin. These are habits that I've been interested in, but the grip of masculinity has prevented me from developing. Now that I have become my ruler, I seek things that were once restricted. Ok, so I lied. I do have another healthy habit that I practice, and that is vocally expressing my appreciation and feelings for those who affect me. I think everyone should find time to understand and speak about their feelings.

With fortifying these habits being the goal, five years from now, I see myself more involved with those in my circle and more content with myself. My health is the main focus for the next five years, so as long as I continue to educate myself on healthy habits, I'm sure to arrive at my destination on time.
