When you have nothing, you actually have everything

What a paradox!!!! in a world where consumerism, materialism and money dictates life, it is hard, or extremely hard to have nothing. But why is it that in your nothingness, you actually have everything?
The opposite of life`s challenges are some sort of calm and peacefulness from within, very hard to think and feel, but in life, when it seems that yours is totally opposite than the rest, there is no other way but to look on the inside, your inner self and discover, what you have that others don`t. Again, it is always easy to compare when the focus is what they have and what you don`t have, but remember, life is not a game of bank account, cars and houses, it is not all about the clothes you wear, or the shoes you use to walk.
Life`s beauty is all about that confidence, calm, and peace that you have inside even if you don`t have what the world offers, after all, material things, or money for that matter will not bring you to that lasting peace and calm that you aspire.
Don`t get me wrong, money is important, and who doesn`t want good clothes, nice shoes, good car that you can drive around, who doesn`t want comfort at it`s most convenient, where material things can be gained with just a flick of a finger.
But, again, my point is, you have something, or you actually have everything if your mind heart and focus is towards the right perspective, i am not saying its ok not to have what the world offers, at least the most basic to go by, what i am saying is that, there are more important essentials that can be key towards life`s appreciation.
Life is beautiful, and it can be more rewarding when you discover your inner self, when you can smile amidst trials and challenges, when you are not afraid to seat down and stop for while and acknowledge that without Him you are nothing. When you can cry sometimes, and recognize that you are falling short and lacking. It is not bad to admit that you made a crazy mistake, and wanting to take the U turn available.
God is with us and He will forever be. He give us the life to live, and we all have the chances in the world to discover what this life has to offer.
Don`t and never give up, there is still more to life than what you see at the moment.
Keep the faith!!!
