Strength

How do I maintain focus in a world designed to distract me?
Nintendo, TV, music videos, phone.
All around me there are so many “good” reasons to not think.

Do we create this distractions purposefully? Is there a sinister plan to create a race that doesn’t think? DO we subconciously hate thinking that much?
Do we dislike ourselves that much that we don’t want to spend anytime alone?
Are we afraid of what we will find?

I wish I knew the secret to remaining focussed. What drives people to pursue a single minded goal?
Is too many options a real thing?

Jehovah, I pray for guidance. No, I pray for the strength of spirit to accept your guidance. Your works surround me all the time. Your words of wisdom abound; the Bible, the Quoran. Your prophets continue their work; Tich Nhat Hanh, Khalil Gibran and so many unsung prophets who affect their small spheres in life.

Lord, your wisdom abounds; your logic surrounds us in the life and world you give us. Your mercy is there for the asking. An open mind and open eyes are all that are required once we have the strength to walk your path for you; and for us.

Strength.
