“Bring me that horizon” – Jack Sparrow

 

I don’t care who you blame for your shortfalls or what you blame for your hardships, you’re the captain of this ship and you’ve chosen this course! Well, Captain, where are you headed from here? You’ve hit the proverbial rock bottom, you’ve isolated yourself from those who support you, and you’ve poisoned your body and mind with toxic negativity and shit food. You can continue down this path playing the role of the victim or you can look back at this chapter, shrug it off and set your focus on the next segment of your life.

 

Lucky for you, life is not one continuous boring essay. Life is an adventure novel with innumerable chapters and guess what- you write those chapters! You’re in charge of when one chapter ends and when a new chapter begins, you’re the masterful designer of this life you play the main character in. You get to choose what you leave behind and what you move forward to.

 

You may feel stuck, you may feel indifferent, or you may not know which direction you want to go, but momentum is key in this journey. Change your story and you change the momentum. Think positively and you will attract positive energy. Cherish yourself and treat yourself right and others will follow suit.

 

Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) you cannot edit past chapters. Once they are written, they are set. There is no delete or backspace or eraser to undo what you’ve done. There’s only unlimited ink to write the future and remedy the past.

 

So set your gaze up toward the horizon, Captain. The next chapter is waiting to be written!

 

Your Humble Skipper
