If you wanna be somebody
If you wanna go somewhere
You better wake up and pay attention
Hey...
How many times have you been instructed to pay attention to people, places, and things?.
Whether it was school, work, or pleasure, awareness was/is second nature.
You know, life has a way of presenting challenges. Some are more difficult than others. Whether it be a wayward child, a painful break up, loss of employment, or health issues, these challenges can cause you to pause life mentally. And although the warning signs were there, you didn't pay attention. Why... Was it because you never thought it would happen to you? Or could it be that you assumed and took the situation for granted.
One should never say they didn't see a particular incident coming. No, you saw it coming, you just didn't want to change. Did you know that paying attention and change are relatives? Yes, they are brother and sister. They are constantly together. Whenever something is requiring your attention, change is standing next to attention asking the question "are you willing"? Nothing just happens. There are always ⚠️ signs, but due to stubbornness, pride, self righteousness, arrogance, etc, you can't see nor hear the bell ringing. You ignore all the red flags and then "with"warning
🎶reality steps in and shocks you into the presence
and all you can do is is ask yourself over and over, why🎶 Cameo...
Reason being... 5,4,3,2,1... You did not or you refused to pay attention. Which in return caused bitterness, anger, frustration.You then became disatisfied with yourself (but blame others).
Sometimes your greatest lesson is a lesson without words... Pay attention...
*1Timothy 4:16*
Pay close attention to yourself and to your teaching; persevere in these things, for as you do this you will ensure salvation both for yourself and for those who hear you.
... and as always
Peace and Blessings 😉

Great day great Wednesday yes paying attention is very important very important
You've said a mouth full today!!
I agree that sometimes the unspoken is saying more than what is spoken. We must learn to listen with both ears and eyes if possible. We should pray to understand the change that's needed and how to enter into it.

Awareness is key in all that we connecting with others. Aware of what's going on inside of yourself, and learning what is going on with them. It takes effort, and time which is all worthwhile. Good stuff
