Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of Real Estate

A Game for those who Seek to Find,
✨ A Way to leave Dark days Behind. ✨
The Dice are Rolled, the Cards are Laid,
✨ The One who Finishes will be Self-Made. ✨

In the Game of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Real Estate there will be more moments where we have no ground to step on, than those of clarity and security. Life is unpredictable, chaotic—there's no getting around it. You can plan meticulously, chart a clear course, build structure around your days, and still—something fall through. A phone call. A missed appointment. An unexpected diagnosis. News Headlines that seem too scary to ignore.
Following your aspirations comes with a terrible amount of disappointment. The Pursuit of something bigger than ourselves is draining, long, tedious and requires a lot of Faith in yourself and in the Systems you have put in place to aid you in your path.
No matter what you choose to dedicate your life to, it will come with inevitable pitfalls and heartaches.
Such is the Game of Life.
It is important to assure we build our foundations nice and strong. That we spend enough time drilling down, grounding and preparing ourselves for the task ahead.
ALWAYS build your “House on a Rock”.
There are moments, however, that we must take the step. We must push forward with confidence. It’s virtually impossible to see all the steps before engaging in the ascend. A lot of times we build the step the moment we step on it.
This requires Attention, Courage and Faith.
When dancing, doing yoga or fighting we, often times, loose our balance. The movements and poses are taking us places our bodies have never been before. We fight with ourselves to return to the familiar and remain in control. Go back to having two feet on the ground, where we can sigh of relief.
We feel tempted to look down or look back. Wishing, mid-step, we could return to safety.
“Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert.”
We want to believe we could have avoided chaos or disorder. But Life is the management of chaotic forces, Integrated in our journey for the purpose of gaining Strength and Vitality. It sounds redundant but our main task in life is to FEEL ALIVE.
The only way to attain balance in life is not to go back to safety. It is to reach Upwards and Onwards.
Nietzsche warned us, in his 1886 masterpiece “Beyond Good & Evil, a Prelude to a philosophy of the Future”, that many times when we are crossing this bridge between who we were and who we want to be, that we don’t spend too much time looking down, lest we may become the fears that lurk in the darkness and see ourselves reflected in them. Afraid, incapable, frozen. Unable to move forward from ourselves.
Today’s card is highlights the necessity of Focus on what’s in front of us. Never on what we have left behind. If the grounds seems unstable and your confidence in your plans and in your ability to see through to fruition feel rattled, know that the only solution is to stay engaged with the Vision.
Focus on the New.
Focus on the Dream.
Focus on the Vision.
Allow it to stretch you upwards.
So, if today you are feeling crushed by thoughts of insecurity and dread, unable to know what to do next: CHIN UP. Chest high, full of air.
Gaze upwards, Heart Onwards. Eyes locked in with God Himself.
Who will stop us now?
