Websters my ass

At the top of this site there is a line that reads: 

"A blog dedicated to all the feelings and emotions that we all have inside of us and the passion for life that is sometimes hard to find."

It's been a while since I have written anything here, or anything at all for that matter, but i was looking at that little line and started thinking about what some of those words really mean.

Words like:

Dedicated or dedication

Feelings

Emotions

Passion

and Life.

All of these words mean different things to different people at different times in our lives, so to define them here would probably be a waste of time. The important thing is that we can recognize that these words exist and try to use them on a daily basis. 

Look these words up in a dictionary and find the technical definition, then try to figure out what they mean to you. I promise you it won't be the same. 

These words are constantly changing in definition according to the events we expeiriance throughout our life. If you were to think about what these words mean to you once a month you might be surprised to find that they don't always mean the same thing to you. 

For instance the word "Feelings" can change drasticly according to our expeiriances in life. A year ago when i thought of the word "Feelings" i would have associated it with things like sadness, guilt, pain, anger, hate and probabaly a lot of other depressing feelings. Now ask me to think about the word "Feelings" and i would give you words like love, happiness, excitment, passion and other words that describe things that bring joy in life. 

The point is that if "Life is a highway" then our feelings are the road signs and landmarks along the way. We can always know where we have been in life by thinking about how we felt at certain times and thinking about what the word "Feelings" means to us now. 

Knowing how we've felt at certain points in our past can be a great way of recognizing feelings we might have in the future and it can be a great way of learning how to react to our feelings but never forget that even though we can learn a lot from the past, the only time and place that really matters is right now and right here.
