The Author's Corner: Walk The Line

What are the lines we walk? How do we know which lines we must cross? Are the lines the ones we make for ourselves limit our future? There are many questions that come from life that creates lines for us.

The lines are more personal as they are the ones we abide by. In setting the lines we look at what is most important to us, or that is what I do. They come from our beliefs, rules that we have been taught from home and society. The question is where do you make those lines?

These lines are those that shape the path or your own line that you walk. When we are faced with new lines in our life, they are normally when you start out in life form the first friends and the first days of school. As we grow some lines are crossed because you have outgrown that one. One example is bedtimes for when you were young, your parents set those times.

Once you enter the world of work, there are new lines you must walk. Where you start out at the lowest level there are things that you have to follow. Some of this lines deal with the order of management and where you are. As you rise up through the ranks, new lines are drawn for you. The only way to beat this system is to work for yourself, however there are more lines even in that situation.

The lines that are solid are the ones we put on our goals and dreams. If you have a line that you must work an hour a day towards those goals and dreams then do it. The time you spent walking these lines will help you more than anything else. The reason for this is to achieve something that has greater meaning for you will spill out into all areas of your life.

In the end, we all walk the line and the biggest line is that of life and death. Sometimes crossing the line into the next life is when we understand that death is the final line in the physical life. What lines will we walk is all up to us in the truth of the matter.

Stay safe.
