Changing Winds Prevail – Poem – by Roger Hoyt
Changing Winds Prevail
The world around me is narrow and thin.
This is not something, I can easily win.
Chaos and the hectic abound in this wood.
Though I look around and see much good.
People are skeptic and thus they can’t see.
The world around them is already free.
From the lies and turmoil of their lives.
The passion and love, that’s what drives.
For they know the secret, from within.
That the thoughts have always been.
They strive for all they’ve done.
All you can think of is a pun.
Open your eyes, so you can see.
Change always starts within thee.

Change Your Life In 7 Days
The Meaning Of Life
What is the meaning of life? Have you ever pondered that question before? I’m sure you as well as many others has.
While I don’t know everything, I can share what I believe is the meaning of life. Now, this may not be the meaning of life for everyone, but can suffice for some. If you have a different opinion on the meaning of life, I welcome your comments below.
The true meaning of life can be summed up by one thing…….Growth. It’s the one thing we’ve done sense we were conceived at birth. We start off as an Embryo and grow into a Fetus, etc, etc. Drawing from this perspective it’s easy to see how one might draw a conclusion that we have only one purpose and that’s to grow.
But humans stop growing when they reach maturity right? Not exactly. See, people may physically stop growing, but what about their brains? What about our mental capabilities?
Sure, some people seem to never grow up and always look like the childish adult who doesn’t know when to be serious. I’m sure you know at least one person like that.
Some people end up going to college and become Philosophers, Astronomers, Physicist, Scientist, Doctors, and even Historians. Others choose to take the other route and let their creativity flow, these people become our artist: Painters, Musicians, Sculptures, Engineers, and Fashion Designers.
What does this do for us? It gives room for growth. It allows our minds to open and expand inward. Without growth, we wouldn’t be who we are today. Without growth, mankind would not be what it has become today.
Through growth, we can strive to be a better person. Through growth, we can make changes, starting from within. Through growth, inspiration lives.
Many people are without jobs right now, myself included, but that’s not keeping me from trying to learn and grow. That’s not stopping me from building my dream. That’s not stopping me from creating my own reality.
Go for the gold. Grow, Learn, Inspire.
My Plans For Change
Ever notice how people change? Some people change trying to be like other people. Others change for a need more or less. Then there are those who are forced to change.
I Choose to change because right now, my life is in Chaos. It’s Hecktic. There is nothing worse than being 30 years old and having done nothing with your life. So, here’s what I’m going to start doing to make it better.
Sense I’m avid about losing weight and even possibly running a marathon, I need to get out there and start hangin with people that already do that. So, that’s what I’m going to do. If you want to be successful, you’ve got to hang out around successful people. If you want to be Fit, you’ve got to hang out around Fit people.
Why is this important? Influence. People in our lives influence us everyday. If you hang out with Smart people, guess what, you’re going to have the urge to become smarter, and hopefully do just that. Heaven forbid the general population get any dumber.
Some people have family who are just lazy, obese, can’t get off their butts for nothing. What do you do about that? Well, for starters, instead of hanging out with the people just like you at school or work. Start making new friends. Have that desire to make changes in your life. Your new friends will respect you for that and probably will even help you.
Networking. I’m going to start Networking a heck of a lot more. People that you talk to and connect with, that’s what it’s about nowadays. If you have connections, you’ll go far. If you have connections, you can get yourself out there, become known.
Sense Changes are inevitable, why not start making your own changes now? No excuses. So, my question for you today is this.
What kind of changes are you going to start making in your life? Start today. Otherwise, you’ll end up like me, 30 years old, (or older) and not getting anywhere in life. It’s never too late to start now. Join me in this #OccupyThisChange movement.
