To make a living, to give back, to enjoy life while growing. Hard out here for a priest. Hehe. Y'all know what I mean. Got my college diploma in theology (2019, at age 35), yet it was so much more, gave my life a goal that is not just playing around like a clown for entertainment (mostly my 20s) but having true knowledge about what it means to be human. Never was afraid of speaking out and teaching people about the values which I believed in. Faith has always been a great part of my life for which I consider myself extremely lucky.
To be funny, to entertain others has always been a piece of cake for me. But to answer serious questions about life and love I had to go through some inner transformation. I needed to see what was covered, had to hear what was whispered, learned to speak what was tested. The truth is not easy for all of us to handle, yet it is a must to be willing to accept. An open mind and an open heart. To be able to see human life as it is - we are all just small parts of one big family.
'We are Groot.' - I hope Marvel won't sue me for this but it's so cute and true. This world has always been the craziest place, yet we wanted to try, wanted to see it for ourselves and now that we are here, we have to do it as planned. We must work hard towards the goals and values which matter to us! To feel the connection to others, to begin to understand what drives most of us, to help those in need. I think and believe we all can do something that makes a difference. We all want to share our moments, to show our life, and get the acknowledgment and success for the hard work we put into it. Yet, it means nothing if it's not for the greater good. But what is it?
The faith. The changes. The efforts. The touch upon others' lives. The memory, the legacy. The present leads to the future.
When you truly love something or someone, you fight for it. You show the world how strong you are by giving new directions. Nothing evolves if we all do the same. Human life keeps on surprising us because we are all different in so many ways, yet forever connected. What the future brings for us is being formed in the present, and is going to be worth the wait.
I've been an outcast my whole life but then I understood what matters and what shouldn't I be worried about. As time flies I go deeper and deeper into not giving a f**k. It's much healthier this way, you know? Those who want to listen are going to no matter what. Those who enjoy being dumb can not be helped. I am talking - writing to those who can think, look in the mirror, evolve, work hard on themselves too. Never stop learning and growing. That's my philosophy.
