the pursuit

"go after your dreams."
we hear that often. i don't argue one bit with this. however, there are times we need to sit back and allow ourselves be pursued.
not making sense right? lemme elaborate.
its not all the time that you constantly have to be pushing for something. yes, you need to work for your goals to come true...sometimes though, you need to sit back and let the goal find you.

thing is, sometimes...permit me to say, "most" times, we lose track of our aim simply because we are working so hard to accomplish it.
not making sense?
ever heard of living and surviving?
in living your goal is still in sight. in existing, you are simply getting by day by day...just making sure you survive each day.

now back to the original statement, let yourself be pursued.
let your vision find you. don't get obsessed with accomplishing something whereas you have even forgotten why you were pursuing and pressing so hard for it. note the use of the word "why" and not "what". in as much as you may clearly remember what your goal is, you may have forgotten the purpose of that goal. what the zeal came from. why you started the race in the first place. 
when you reach such point in life, pursuing further...without aim will simply lead to frustration, which may eventually lead to the abandoning of the vision as a whole.

so go back to the drawing board....back to where it all began and let your vision speak to you again. let that zeal and urge consume you all over again. let your dreams desire for you to desire them once more.  LET YOURSELF BE PURSUED.
