Living Life in a fog
 

 
How could a person live their life in a fog?

How could one live a life, ignoring the important things that have happened in their life? How could a person not see the truth that dwells within them?

These have been some thoughts I have been having recently.

I have done many things in my life, which I am not proud of; I am not able to ignore it I have to change myself. The pain that resides in me hurts me so bad, that I have to let it out. Letting it out is being honest with God and myself and with another person who I trust. That is how I received Freedom and peace.

I have to face myself, and in facing myself, I am facing the truth.
I have had to live the consequences of my actions. I had to wake up, grow up and see the truth, the truth of myself.

I have had to change myself in every possible way. Changing my actions, changing my thinking, I had to change the way I treat people.
I have to continue to change myself, if I want to live in peace, and be free.

I have to change my thoughts and actions and the way I communicate with others.
How can one continue to live life if they’re covering up their wrongs?

Maybe it is just that they are ignorant and really do not know what they have done or what they are doing.

It could be that they don't see what their actions are doing to themselves and to others. Or maybe they are too afraid to face themselves (the Truth inside of them). Who knows why people do the things they do.

I just know I am free today because I want to live life to the fullest. I want to continue to be free. So I will have to continue to face myself daily, facing the truth about life, and what choices I make.

I have to respect people and really take time to listen to others and also to take time for myself. I want to continue to be free so I must continue to grow.
