Starting Over


There comes a time in everyone’s life when a page is turned and a new chapter begins. Some have many more chapters then others but it comes down to the fact that they still have chapters. It makes no difference if they’re long or short because they are inevitable. Life would become too complacent without them. Just think of how your life would be if it never changed. The good part of it is that things will never get worse. The bad part is that things will never get better then what they are now.

Much like a bookstore there are many different subjects with many different chapters. Most people have started over at least a few times in their lives before they reach adulthood. Changing schools, friends, moving and jobs seem to be the most common. With time comes ease of transition but with age comes more repercussions with every decision. When failure is not an option, pages are added to the same endless chapter. Along with becoming an adult, comes the burden of making the best decisions for one’s self.

A person needs change in their life in order to make it ignite into what they have always dreamed it would be. Fear of making one’s life worse is the main reason most don’t even attempt to begin new life chapters. People must learn to trust their inner voice and take chances to better their life when the right time to do so presents itself. Fear of letting the opportunity blow by and living with regret is what fuels most people to make a decision while they still can. Balancing between failure and regret is a hopeless feeling. Stifled by anxiety because they are forced to foresee their own future and make a life changing decision. Deep inside the answer is waiting to be decoded and sent to the next page which is waiting to be turned.

Starting new chapters is something everyone is faced with at one time or another. The decision to do so lies hidden within. The place that is only meant for you and nobody else, the one only you can call yours. Some try to share this place with others but it must be self discovered before it can ever be dispensed. Places buried so deep that you yourself have yet to explore them. Way behind ones inner voice lies an unexplored sense. Beyond any traditional sense, it waits to be set free and honed to the sharp confident tool we need it to be. A tool so powerful, it can erase all doubt about what’s on the next page. New life chapters will give starting over the feeling of belonging in the journey of life.
