Caution... Detour Ahead - Adlin Taylor-Brissett (books for 10th graders .TXT) 📗

 Sometimes life spirals out of control towards the giant abyss and there's nothing you can do to stop it. At some point, a person will fail at something during his or her lifetime. Accept the failures. The point is that you have already failed; stop brooding over it, brooding still won’t make it right.

The thing is to figure out what went wrong and learn from it. Then, be resolved, get up and start over. The truth of the matter is that there are several paths to succeeding in life. This is worth keeping in mind, and knowing that every day brings forth a new start and a chance for fresh thoughts.

 It’s senseless to chase life because you’ll never catch it. Stop trying to figure it out. Really. Sometimes life is fast and sometimes it is slow. Life is always changing, it ebbs and flows, it moves up and down, and sometimes it goes sideways. The meaning of life has no precise answers because we are all seeking what is best for us.  Look up, look down, look everywhere and you'll see life staring you in the face.

Life is like a grand kaleidoscope of colors. Sometimes it’s grey, sometimes it’s black, sometimes it’s white and sometimes it’s all the colors of the rainbow. Life is like a raging sea, and it twists and turns and churn. Life is full of challenges, and life is awe-inspiring. Life is love and hate; joy and pain, and moments in between. Life is war and peace and winning and losing.

 I encourage you to just live life and enjoy the mystery of it. Seek a balance and enjoy the many aspects of what is. Be open-minded, be willing to learn and apply what you have learned. When life happens, sometimes you just have to roll with the punches. So, get excited with life now, and be happy with now because you have now. Too many of us spend our entire life trying to figure out life. Stop!! Life is.....

I thank God for giving me inspiration and imagination.  Thanks to my family and friends...you all know who you are.

Thanks, my Readers

To the readers, you are very important to me and you are the reason I write. Without you, the readers, authors and aspirating authors wouldn’t exist because you are our lifeline.  Like flowers need the rain, so do authors need their readers. I appreciate you and hope to gain your ongoing support. Thanks.
