Being a Human Being......



You will be born a human being with a body, a mind and a soul.
You will either like it or hate it, either way...it is yours for the keeping.
You will experience many emotions from which you will learn lessons imperative to your life's happiness.
You will be enrolled in a human school called, 'life'  in which you will receive a book called, 'your book of life'.
This book holds the chapters that you will write throughout your time as a human being.
You will make mistakes, which will in turn, teach you lessons vital to your success in this life as a human being. 
Your growth will consist of many of trial & errors, which are your lessons in the life as a human.
You will fail, you will succeed, how you deal with either will determine your fate.
Your 'failed' attempts will be as much a part of the process of growth as your successions.
Your life's lessons will challenge you until you have learned them well...excelling further or you will push them aside....leaving yourself to mere ignorance.
Life's lessons never end....as long as you are breathing... you will be learning.
You will be tempted to strive for what you do not have or be who you are not...this very important lesson will result in your level of self-acceptance & self-love.
You will love and you will hate...you will hurt and you will not hurt....the lesson here is whether or not you can forgive....again how you deal with these lessons will define who you are.
How you exist in your life is solely up to you.
You will have all the tools and resources you will need equal to others.
What you do with them is again solely up to you.
The lesson here will be a lesson of choices.
The answers to your life's questions lie within you.
How you attain them is again up to you...

So choose wisely and you will succeed!

much wisdom in this post dorothy. simply put, life is what you make of it. have a wonderful day my friend...hugz!

lina@happy family said...

Very inspiring post, D. As a human being, yes, we face many things, good or bad one... We are responsible for our own life, so, make a proper choose in our life becomes so important!

Cher Duncombe said...

What a beautifully stated post, D. Life can certainly be difficult and it can be euphoric. One of the most important issues you addressed was forgiveness. Until we learn that, I don't believe it is possible to go forward and to be healthy in mind, body and spirit. Our choices have such high impact, don't they?

Shattered said...

Thank you for sharing such wise words! Life is truly what we make of it...

i lreally like this, Tq 4 share Mrs. D :)

What a lovely and inspiring post. Learning and choosing wisely, words to live by! Grabbed your badge while I was here.

Bring Back Pluto said...

I agree with Cher. You mentioned forgiveness. You may have meant it in general terms, but I think the most difficult thing is to be able to forgive yourself. We're not perfect. We make mistakes, but understanding that we're human allows us to forgive ourselves and thus helps us grow and evolve.
And of course learning how to enjoy the journey is important.
All this is easy to say and DIFFICULT to DO!!

Verna Luga said...

HI D, thanks for the visit.... Yes, indeed life is what we make it, it is wrong to say that we have no choice, sometimes we just choose not to choose from those choices.... just like me hahahahah! See you again D.

Grumpy old man said...

Hi Dorothy, sooo true, lessons are learned mostly by making mistakes, if those mistakes are your own, better learn from them so you do not make them again, if someone else's mistake, so much better.
Hate? it only destroys the hater, not the hated. So do not hate.
Fantastic post!
Colin.

Jen said...

I especially like the last part. What great words about responsibility and making it what you want. I love the part about equal resources. Very wise. It would be really nice if everyone understood this and then lived it.

dhemz said...

VanillaSeven said...

Thanks for reminding us than to make mistake is very human and part of the learning in life. For from there we are able to do better. :)

amiable amy said...

This is really true...your thoughts are truly amazing. Thanks for the reminders. Whatever we do in life, we choose it. If we want to succeed, we have to work for it. Nice to be here. Thank you for following my blog and I did too with yours.

Everybody needs inspirational message everyday. Thanks for the inspiration. It brightens my depressed soul today.

glee said...

yes D, some things in life are there to be kept and accepted, some though, are to be changed. if i look at the disadvantages, i become bitter once in a while, but if i look at those that are in a lot more disadvantage situations, then I thank God for what I have.

Right now though, things are so stressful at work because of the people that I work for, they make me detest my profession. frustration and anger can add up quietly that sometimes, without my knowing, are just waiting to burst out. But as you said, it is up to the person to decide and make choices.

Hope all is well for you, take care. you are being missed on my side, hugs ;)

It's well worth having to wait a week or more for your posts. They are always so well written and reflective with great thought. It's no wonder you have such a fantastic and loyal following. I had to reread it a few times (I usually do) to get every thought, this happens with age.
Just a great blog from a great soul. BIG HUGS

eden said...

Hello D,

I always enjoy reading your post. Very well said and I agree with you.Mistakes and success are parts of our life. We have to learn to accept and appreciate our mistakes in order to learn. Few times, i came to the point of giving up because of mistakes that I had done, but then I realize that it is just part of the process in order to achieve something.

have a good weekend

imelda said...

yes i agre with you dorothy, whatever you make out of yourself is your choice. however, i beleive in destiny, too. that is why acceptance is very important, too.

Raj said...

Yeah, Life is what we make of it.

Everyone has been gifted 24 hours in a day by God, but what we make out of it depends upon the way we take our decisions in life

And yeah, forgiveness is really important to have a calm mind :)

Indeed, life is a matter of choices. What choices one makes determine very much the life that one will be having. We have to be wise with our choices.

Dorothy said...

Mrs Sweetwater said...

Ms.D. I actually made a book of me, from the astrological and numerological aspects. I read it when I revise it yearly on my birthday. it truly helps guide you when you learn more about you. that book of life is one that can never be edited; Thank God for that.

RE - RecycledFrockery said...

The most important kind of forgiveness is the one you give yourself; because it grounds you to reality. Reality is Wisdom.

anney said...

Life is short. Make the most out of it. You are right about what you said that Life's lessons never end....as long as you are breathing. It is a continuous process.

GoenduL.Net said...

it's so worthy for me, 'Life's lessons never end....as long as you are breathing... you will be learning'. Sometimes we forgot about wht we'd ever done as if everything was gone so fast. Thanks Dorothy, I'll right back tomorrow..see ya buddy

Lily Arbee said...

Wow! This is really true. A goo post, Dorothy. I myself have made many mistakes along the way by trusting the wrong people. You won't be suprised sometimes, the people that ruin you is those closes to you. I have my life story to tell too, and I have this in mind. Perhaps to tell and warn others on some of my experiences to safeguard them and advice them to be careful when choosing friends.

Momfever said...

Beautiful! And very wise.

Isn’t life an amazing and fun journey, which is only as good as we make it. I however wish I would start to learn better from my mistakes. If only I could, things would be so much better....

I fall in the supportive section. Hubby would too. We were both married before and both of us married the controlling types. What a nice life we both have now. :)
